Which of the following division statements will return an integer value?

The reasoning behind the correct answer is based on the type of operands involved in the division operations. In programming, when both operands of the division are integers, the result of the operation is often an integer as well. Specifically, in many programming languages, when you divide two integers, the result is an integer that represents the quotient, where any remainder is discarded.

In this case, the first statement, which involves two integer operands (22 and 7), will return the integer result of the division, which is 3.

In contrast, the other statements involve at least one floating-point operand (22.0 or 7.0). When a floating-point number is used in a division operation, most programming languages will promote the result to a floating-point number as well, resulting in a decimal value. For example, 22.0 / 7 and 22 / 7.0 will yield approximately 3.142857, which is not an integer.

Thus, the only statement that will consistently yield an integer value is the first one, reinforcing the knowledge of how integer and floating-point arithmetic works in programming.
