How do i divide int by float?

Question

Sorry if this is basic programming but theres still a few basics I'm not familiar with.

I'm trying to divide screen resolution by 1.5

 Screen.SetResolution(Screen.width / 1.5f, Screen.height / 1.5f, true);

Argument 1: cannot convert from 'float' to 'int'

You would need to cast it to the type you want and then back i.e.

   (int)((float)Screen.width/ 1.5f)

although in c# there is implicit casting on numeric types so

   (int)(Screen.width/ 1.5f)

Should work too.

Edit: Sorry doing too much swift lately

Still saying the same thing with

 Screen.SetResolution((float)Screen.width / 1.5f, (float)Screen.height / 1.5f, true);

(251,26): error CS1503: Argument 1: cannot convert from 'float' to 'int'

You didnt copy my example.

That casts the Screen.Width to a float but the Method takes an int parameter so you need to give it an int.

Try copying and pasting either of my examples or copy the formatting. Notice where the parenthesis are.
