I'd hate to go get a bachelor's degree somewhere, go through an Educator Preparation Program (EPP), study for and take whatever state-specific exams are required, apply for a teaching certificate, go find a teaching job where I'll likely be purchasing a lot of teaching supplies out of pocket, and then stare down a future where my income will likely never exceed what a junior software developer made during my freshman year of college.

That's a general floating point number joke, and it shouldn't actually be an issue with those two values because they're whole numbers being multiplied together...but rounding errors are always a thing you need to think about when doing division where you want fractional values.

I like to structure the implementation of business logic to use integer types as far along in the process as I can for cases where precision is needed, but that's not always something you can do depending on what that logic is and where the authoritative data is coming from.
