Getting digits of number in c#

Question

I want to be able to take any digit from a number in C# , so I created a function to do so. I used only maths to get to the digit. Here is my code

static int GetDigit(int number, int k)
    {
        // k is the positiong of the digit I want to get from the number
        // I want to divide integer number to 10....0 (number of 0s is k) and then % 10
        // to get the last digit of the new number
        return (number / (int)Math.Pow(10, k-1)) % 10;
    }

However, there is an error message - "Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'double' to 'int'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)". I think that Math.Pow returns double so it tries to convert the type of number to double. Help is greatly appreciated :)

Convert to integer?

static int GetDigit(int number, int k)
    {
        // k is the positiong of the digit I want to get from the number
        // I want to divide integer number to 10....0 (number of 0s is k) and then % 10
        // to get the last digit of the new number
        return (int)(number / Math.Pow(10, k)) % 10;
    }
}
