    Why are the decimal places not shown for division?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    The set /a command (used for doing the mathematical operations) cannot display decimal places, so it rounds it down in all cases.

    I followed all of the instructions, but when I try to open up Command Prompt by clicking on the Notepad file, nothing happens. What should I do?

    You open the .bat file, not the Notepad icon. It creates a new icon on the desktop (or wherever you save it to).
