ASP Not dividing correct

Here is the values I have:

Number = 5
Funds = 5.60

Average = 1.2

ASP is incorrect. When I do it with my calculator I get
1.12 as the Average not 1.2. Why am I getting this:

Here is my code
-----code ----------
Number = cint(Children) + cint(Adults)
Average = (clng(Funds) / cint(Number)
response.write "Number = " & number
response.write "Funds = " & Funds

response.write "Average = " & Average

Re: ASP Not dividing correct

You're CLng'ing 5.6, which will round it up to 6. 6/5=1.2. Instead of
CLng, use CSng.

Do this to see your problem:

response.write "clng(Funds) = " & clng(Funds)

Then try this:
Average = (csng(Funds) / csng(Number)
response.write "Average = " & Average
