I need help getting a remainder for when I'm converting inches to feet. i need the remainder to be in inches? Heres what i have

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>


usingnamespacestd;


int main() {
    double centimeters, meters;
    int conversion, inches, feet, yards, remainInch;


cout << "Display the entered lenght in:" <<endl;
    cout << "1. feet" << endl;
    cout << "2. yards" << endl;
cout << "3. centimeters" << endl;
    cout << "4. meteres" << endl << endl;
cout << "Enter your choice: " <<endl;
    cin >> conversion;

cout << "Enter your lenght in inches :" << endl;
    cin >> inches;



    if  (conversion == 1){
        feet = inches / 12;
        remainInch =(feet) % 12;
        cout << "Your length is " << feet << " feet "<< "and " << remainInch << " inches"<< endl;

    }

    else if (conversion == 2){
        yards = inches/ 36;
        cout << "Your length in yards is " << yards << endl;
    }

    else if (conversion == 3) {
        centimeters = inches/ .39370;
        cout << "Your length in centimeters is " << centimeters << endl;
    }

    else if (conversion == 4) {
        meters = inches / 39.370;
        cout << "Your length in meters is " << meters << endl;
    }
    else if (conversion < 1 || conversion > 4) {
cout << " This value is not an option." << endl;
    }





     return 0;
}

Can i ask for an example of how my code formatting needs work. I am very new to this and i thought it looked okey ?

oh bye the way thank you for the help always appreciated !!!

I need help getting a remainder for when I'm converting inches to feet. i need the remainder to be in inches?

You know this: there are 12 inches per foot or 12 in/ft. Let this value equal x.

We want a formula like this : ( 1 ft / 12 in ) * X = feet.

Now, if you want the remainder to be in inches, you simply use std::div just like this :

Code:

// Example program
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>


int main()
{
    const int inches = 71;
    const int inches_per_foot = 12;
    std::div_t feet = std::div(inches, inches_per_foot);
    std::cout << feet.quot << "\' " << feet.rem << "\"" << std::endl;
}

Output:

Code:

5' 11"
