Thread: Helping with an error i keep getting

Hi everyone, Iam really bad at C++, and on my home work (yes i have it completed i just dont understand an error i keep getting) its saying a statement is missing, when obviously its there, its stumping me completely, if i delete the line the error just moves to the next line ive tried diffrent ways of displaying it but for the life of me (or maybe my terrible luck programming) I am lost as to what to do.
please be gentle its not the best but iam trying to learn...

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
   // data declarations
   int   numTests = 5;   // The number of test scores
   // TODO
   // declare 5 test score variables (one per line, type int)
   // declare 1 test score average variable (type float or double)
         int score1;
         int score2;
         int score3;
         int score4;
         int score5;
         float avg;

            // Inputs
   // TODO
   // Prompt uers & get five test scores (five prompts)
       cout << "Please enter test score Number one: ";
       cin >> score1;

       cout << "Please enter test score Number two: ";
       cin >> score2;

       cout << "Please enter test score Number three: ";
       cin >> score3;

       cout << "Please enter test score Number four: ";
       cin >> score4;

       cout << "Please enter test score Number five: ";
       cin >> score5;

        // Processing
   // TODO
   // Calculate the total value of the tests and the average
   // Use casting if necessary
       avg=score1+score2+score3+score4+score5/numTests

   // Output
   // TODO
   // Display results
   // Line 1: the label
   // Line 2: the manipulators setprecision, fixed, showpoint
   // Line 3: the test score average

LINE I GET ERROR-->>>
        cout <<"The average score is: ";
        cout << setprecision(3);
        cout << avg;

   // Program termination
 cin.ignore();
 cin.get();
 return 0;
}

There is e semicolon missing on this line

Code:

      avg=(score1+score2+score3+score4+score5)/numTests;

BTW you need the () to get a correct result

Thank you, figures it would be something as simple as that, again thank you so much.. now my head can stop hurting =)

What compiler are you using?

On many of them you can just double click on the error message and it will take you to the line with the error. If your does that, you could have easily seen the error.
