Trying to get max value of two variables..works in one place, not in the other, not sure why. Help anyone? (please & thank you!)

OK, I’ll post the code in it’s entirely (html/touch of CSS/& JS) so you can see where I’m getting things from…

It’s a calculator for shipping purposes, and 95% of it is functional. If you select “CM,” any and all calculations there are correct. If you select “IN,” the calculations are correct, however it does NOT compare the value of “volumelbs” to that of “actualweight” to determine which is larger.

That is the issue I’m running into. (hope this makes sense…new to code forums, so my wording may not be on par)

Here’s the code (let me know if I should edit it out and add a fiddle or js.do instead).

<script src= 
"https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js"> 
    </script> 
    <style type="text/css"> 
        .selectt { 
            display: none;
      }
      #et-boc > div > div > div > div > div > div.et_pb_module.et_pb_code.et_pb_code_1 > div > div.Inches.selectt { display: block; }
</style>

Well you can select “in” and then enter in anything. OR enter in nothing except for “actual weight” and hit calculate. It SHOULD run calculations off the actual weight alone (since it’s registering it as larger than then volumelbs, which is 0 without the length/width/height.

For example
select “in”
length = 5
width = 5
height = 5
actual weight = 5
Calculate --> volumetric weight = 1
It should now take the larger of those two variables (actual & volumetric), divide by 2, and multiply by 5 (or just multiply the larger variables by 10.)
SOMEHOW it’s not registering the larger of those two. (but it does for CM)

However, if you run it with just the actual weight, you get “0” as a total cost.

That’s the quickest way to see the issue.

Select CM, do the same, you’ll see calculations. Or enter info, calculations.

Only running into issues with getting the largest of the two variables “volumelbs” (registers/calculates fine) and “actualWeight”

The same variable “actualWeight” is used prior to the comparison with “volumelbs” (compared against variable “volume”) and it works fine.

I’ve even tried “var actualWeight2 = actualWeight;” (for a fresh, “unused” variable) and then swapping things out to show “Let billedWeight2 = Math.max(volumelbs, actualWeight);” (and then calculations below as well), but it has no effect. Same results.
