Should you correct compiler warnings about type conversions using explicit typecasts?

In my current project, the compiler shows hundreds of warnings about type conversions.

There is a lot of code like this

iVar = fVar1*fVar2/fVar3;
// or even
iVar = fVar1*fVar2/fVar3+.5f;

which intentionally assign float values to int.

Of course, I could fix these warnings using

iVar = int(...);

but that looks kind of ugly.

Would you rather live with the ugliness or live with the warnings?
Or is there even a clean solution?
