Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 21,661 PointsJavascript addition using parseINT
I m on track for JS full stack and was doing something to use parseINT on maths. But my code doesn't work properly, if i want to ass 700+25, it shows 70025. Whereas it should show 725. Why is that?
` if(amount >= 1000){ percent = parseInt((amount/100)) * 15; percentage = amount + parseInt(percent); document.getElementById("total-repay").innerHTML = percentage;
}`
