Challenge with Math.floor in Cash Register Project

[lawell-wilhelm]

Hello guys,
I’m using the code below to find out currency needed. This is how much do I need from a particular currency compartment of the cid. For instance, currency unit amount is ‘PENNY’ is $0.01 and current compartment in the cid is [‘PENNY’, 1.01]. It works well using the expression below.

let currencyNeeded = Math.floor(change/currencyUnitAmount);

However, Math.floor(0.039999/0.01) is returning 3 instead 4. So deducting 0.03 from the PENNY compartment instead of 0.04. This my challenge.
I’ve gone to the MDN JavaScript documentation and other document. I haven’t any way around it so far. Please, assist me.

Floating point numbers always have roundoff. I’d use an integer number of cents instead.

Thanks. Please, how do you use an integer number of cents?

When I did this challenge, I multiplied everything by 100 and used floor to get integers, then before I returned the result I divided everything by 100 to go back to a decimal number of dollars.

Thanks. I’ll try it out
