divided_by

Divides a number by another number.

The result is rounded down to the nearest integer (that is, the floor) if the divisor is an integer.

Input

{{ 16 | divided_by: 4 }}
{{ 5 | divided_by: 3 }}

Output

4
1

Controlling rounding

divided_by produces a result of the same type as the divisor — that is, if you divide by an integer, the result will be an integer. If you divide by a float (a number with a decimal in it), the result will be a float.

For example, here the divisor is an integer:

Input

{{ 20 | divided_by: 7 }}

Output

2

Here it is a float:

Input

{{ 20 | divided_by: 7.0 }}

Output

2.857142857142857

Changing variable types

You might want to use a variable as a divisor, in which case you can’t simply add .0 to convert it to a float. In these cases, you can assign a version of your variable converted to a float using the times filter.

In this example, we’re dividing by a variable that contains an integer, so we get an integer:

Input

{% assign my_integer = 7 %}
{{ 20 | divided_by: my_integer }}

Output

2

Here, we multiply the variable by 1.0 to get a float, then divide by the float instead:

Input

{% assign my_integer = 7 %}
{% assign my_float = my_integer | times: 1.0 %}
{{ 20 | divided_by: my_float }}

Output

2.857142857142857
