If you're wondering why ticketPrice isn't showing 2 decimals, it's because you've declared it as an int. Int's do not have the capability to store decimal places, you need to use the datatype double.
Reply:Maybe because TicketPrice is an int and int's don't have decimal precisions. Try making it a double.





Hope that helps.
