use of float variables and its calculation in PICCLITE compiler

[Jyothi@Pic]

Hi,

Below is the code for calculation this code is in PICCLITE compiler
unsigned int AC_MIN=100,adc_value=108,ADC_MIN=62,AC_MAX=240,ADC_MAX=153,ADC_OUT;

ADC_OUT=AC_MIN+((adc_value-ADC_MIN)*((AC_MAX-AC_MIN)/(ADC_MAX-ADC_MIN)));

AS PER MANUAL CALCULATION I HAVE TO GET CC AS OUTPUT IN HEX
AND 204(DECIMAL)

BUT I AM GETTING A8(HEX) 168(DECIMAL)

CAN ANYBODY TELL HOW TO GET THE CORRECT MANUALLY CALCULATED VALUE

and also tell me how variables declared as float works
please for this its urgent

I am new to this

ITS URGENT

The manual (calculator) calculation comes out at 170. If you swap your brackets around so the multiply is done before the divide then you will get the correct answer.
