int avg


avg = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5+ 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 +10 + 11 + 12 + 13 (up to 35) / 35;


cout << "Avererage is : " <<avg;

Is this close?

EDIT

RDcast, I can get the vat alright with int

No. Assuming by average you mean the arithmetic mean, that's the sum of the values divided by the number of values.

No you can't, unless you want it measured in cents. An int can't store anything but whole numbers. If your item was a dollar, your tax would bet 29 cents or .29. An int can't store .29 as it isn't a whole number, and it will drop any fractional components when used in division. 1/2 = 0 if you're just using integers.
