How do I do this?

I have an assignment for my programming class that requires me to " use switch in this exercise)
Write a C++ program that asks for a number between 15 and 256. Use the digit of ones of the generated number to display one of the following messages :

“Valencia Community college” if the digit of ones is divisible by 5, equal to 3 or 4
“UCF” is the digit of ones is greater than 5
“Colonial High” is the digit of ones is either 1 or 2
"

the problem is that i have no idea how to isolate the ones place of an integer and use it for a switch statement. Any help on doing this will be much appreciated.

You might want to look into arrays
try to define your problem in the title, don't put things like "help me" or "how do I do this", you'll get more responses

to find the ones place of an integer all you have to do is determine the remainder of the number divided by 10.

last_digit = number%10;

for this to work number has to be an int, not a floating point number

for example if you use the number 15, 15%10 gives you the remainder of 15/10, or 5.
using 256, 256%10 gives you the remainder of 256/10, or 6.
