toBePercent = (toBePercent.toFloat() / 100).toString()

I have this line of code and whenever I make toBePercent into 5 it converts it to "0.05" (good) but whenever I make toBePercent into 10 or above it outputs "0.0"

Maybe it's since I'm using android studio?

percentBtn.setOnClickListener {
            var toBePercent = text.text.toString().last().toString()
            toBePercent = (toBePercent.toFloat() / 100.00).toString()
            text.text = toBePercent
        }

var toBePercent = text.text.toString().last().toString()

you seem to be only taking the last digit here.... is that by design?
