I have three counters counterBoat, counterThink and counterWork.

I want to print the integer "round"(100*counterBoat/(counterBoat+ counterThink+ counterWork)) in my document.

I use the package totcount.

  • Load the xfp package and use \inteval, and use \value to access the values of the counters. The result is rounded by default. \inteval{100*\value{counterBoat}/(\value{counterBoat}+\value{counterThink}+\value{counterWork})} – Phelype Oleinik Oct 2 '19 at 12:54

 \numexpr(100*\value{counterBoat}) / 
        ( \value{counterBoat} + \value{counterThink} + \value{counterWork})\relax

    Just +1 for not using unneeded packages... My previous comment about lost parenthesis was no valid ... was a combination of edited and non edited answer ... Sorry. – koleygr Oct 2 '19 at 12:57

    If you want to print that number rather than use it in another calculation, prefix with \the – David Carlisle Oct 2 '19 at 12:57
  • @koleygr your comment was valid until (literally) a second before you posted it, so no need to apologise! – David Carlisle Oct 2 '19 at 12:58

    @Colas as I say just put \the in front of that line in a document and the number will be printed. There is no testable code in this answer as you did not supply a test document in the question. – David Carlisle Oct 2 '19 at 15:03

    @Colas of course not, you are using \numexpr and counters so this is integer arithmetic. That appears to be a completely different question, perhaps you want to use the xfp package and floating point arithmetic, i really can't guess. – David Carlisle Oct 2 '19 at 16:03
