Provide an argument justifying the following claim: the average (as defined here) of two java ints i and j is representable as an int, regardless of the lower and upper bounds on the value of an int.

public static int average(int j, int k) {

return (int)(( (long)(i) + (long)(j) ) /2 );

}

Explanation:

The above code returns the average of two integer variables

Line 1 of the code declares a method along with 2 variables

Method declared: average of integer data type

Variables: j and k of type integer, respectively

Line 2 calculates the average of the two variables and returns the value of the average.

The first of two integers to average is j

The second of two integers to average is k

The last parameter ensures average using (j+k)/2

do you have any options?
