Not outputting the calculation, just 0 - c++

Question

I have my code here and it runs, however, when I try to output the percentage it just outputs 0, I've spent a long time trying to figure out what I'm missing and I'm clueless. Basically I'm trying to output the percent of votes for each candidate out of total votes. Any help would be appreciated. Here is my output;
Output display Also, im aware that the winner loops through every user until it reaches the end for some reason, still trying to work out the kinks.
Here is my code -
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
class candidatesElection
{
public:
string last;
float votePercent;
void winnerOfElection();
void outputDis();
int total = 0;
};
int main()
{
string lastName[5];
int amountOfVotes[5];
double percentTotal[5];
int total = 0;
int winnerNo = 0;
int winningCandidate;
string winningName;
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
cout << "Enter the last name of the Candidate: " << endl;
cin >> lastName[i];
cout << endl;
cout << "Enter the votes received by the Candidate: " << endl;
cin >> amountOfVotes[i];
total += amountOfVotes[i];
cout << "Total number of votes is: " << total << endl;
}
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
if (amountOfVotes[i] > amountOfVotes[winnerNo]) winnerNo = i;
amountOfVotes[i] = amountOfVotes[winnerNo];
}
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
percentTotal[i] = (amountOfVotes[i] / total) * 100.0; // need to make it floating point
}
void outputDis();
{
cout << endl << left << setw(25) << "Candidate" << right << setw(25) << "Votes Received" << setw(25) << "% of Total Votes" << endl;
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
cout << endl << left << setw(25) << lastName[i] << right << setw(25) << amountOfVotes[i] << setw(25) << percentTotal[i] << endl;
cout << endl << left << setw(25) << "Total" << right << setw(25) << total << endl;
for (int i = 1; i < 5; i++)
{
int winHigh = amountOfVotes[0];
string win = lastName[0];
if (amountOfVotes[i] > winHigh)
{
winHigh = amountOfVotes[i];
win = lastName[i];
}
cout << "The Winner of the Election is " << win << endl;
}
}
system("pause");
};

Answer 1

The coefficient amountOfVotes[i] / total in (amountOfVotes[i] / total) * 100.0 is evalated in integer arithmetic: i.e. any fraction is discarded.
So you end up with 0 * 100 for all cases where amountOfVotes[i] is less than total.
The solution is to rearrange the formula to 100 * amountOfVotes[i] / total;, or, even better 100.0 * amountOfVotes[i] / total; which will force evaluation in double precision floating point - you are in danger of overflowing an int which, on some systems, can have an upper limit as low as 32767.
That's not immediately obvious even when using a line-by-line debugger. But do use that debugger to work out the other "kinks".
