(Super Beginner) Need help multiplying to get percentage

I can't get my code to show a percent when I divide my percent/100 it just shows 0 when ran. I am extremely new to this but am enjoying the learning experience and would appreciate any help, thanks!

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
	int number_of_shares, share_price,percent;
	double x=100;
	
	

	cout << "How many shares did you buy?\n";
	cin >> number_of_shares;
	cout << "\n";
	cout << "How much is each share?\n";
	cin >> share_price;
	cout << "\n";
	cout << "What is the commission charged?\n";
	cin >> percent;
	cout << "Stock Cost:";
	cout << number_of_shares*share_price;
	cout << "\n";
	cout << "\n";
	cout << "Commission Charged: \n";
	cout << (number_of_shares*share_price) - (number_of_shares*share_price)*(percent/100);
	cout << "\n";
	cout << (percent/100);
	 

	return 0;

}
 
Int's will only show whole numbers, so percent needs to be a double.
