Issues with Switch-based converter program-Output isn't showing decimal points

Im currently working on a project for a beginner c++ class in school and im making a basic converter program using switches. I have set it up so when the user enters a specific number, it brings them to the conversion for that medium, such as pressing 1 to get to the length conversions, it is very much unfinished, but as im testing it, entering numbers that will output a number with a decimal point results in a rounded number, even when im using double-type variables. I've combed through the code and any other things online about what could be incorrect but decided it might be a good idea to ask you guys.

#include <iostream>  using namespace std;    int main()  {      int input1 = 0, value = 0, x;      double rate = 0;        cout << "Welcome to the Converter Program\n" << endl;      do      {          cout << "Please select one of the 3 conversions available:\n()()()()()()()\n< 1-Length >\n"              << "< 2-Weight >\n< 3-Tempurature >\n\n()()()()()()()\n";          cin >> input1;            if (input1 == 1)     {          cout << "Please enter your desired length conversion\n()()()()()()()\n<1-Inch to Foot>\n<2-           Foot to Yard>\n<3-Foot to Miles>\n ()()()()()()()\n\n";          cin >> x;          switch (x)          {          case 1:              cout << "Please enter your inches value to convert to feet\n-------------------------------------------------\n";              cin >> value;              rate = value / 12;              cout << value << "Inches =" << rate << "Feet.\n\n\n\n";              break;          case 2:              cout << "Please enter your ft value to convert to yards\n-------------------------------------------------\n";              cin >> value;              rate = value / 3;              cout << value << "Feet =" << rate << "Yards.\n\n\n\n";              break;                    }            }      } while (1 > 0);  }'''
