DavidAM Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 $count = 0; while ($x >= 30) { $count = $count + 1; $x = $x - 30; } unset($x); echo $count; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/267987-how-do-i-get-how-many-30s-there-are-in-x-amount-and-then-strip-the-remainder/#findComment-1375322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 $count = 0; while ($x >= 30) { $count = $count + 1; $x = $x - 30; } unset($x); echo $count; That's too efficient. You need to step through one by one $count = 0; $subCount = 0; for ($i=0; $i<$x; $i++) { $subCount++; if($subCount==30) { $count = $count + 1; $subCount = 0; } } echo $count; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/267987-how-do-i-get-how-many-30s-there-are-in-x-amount-and-then-strip-the-remainder/#findComment-1375327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
