the methods subtract, addition, multiplication, and division are defined to return numbers but you don't return anything at the end of them

then i should return answer; at the end ?

The error that you're currently being given is due to how you have set the return type of your function to be an integer despite your parameters being doubles and therefore your return type a double (as answer is a double and you're adding two doubles which has a type of double). This causes a conversion error. Since you're converting from a double to an integer you would be losing precision which is why it is complaining about "lossy conversion". The easiest way to solve this problem is by changing your function signature to either use integer parameters or return a double.
Integer Parameters:
Code public static int addition(int firstNumber, int secondNumber) {...}
Returning a Double:
Code public static double addition(double firstNumber, double secondNumber
My personal opinion is that since all the variables in your class are doubles you should be returning in doubles, otherwise you'll continuously be running into problems like this and losing precision that may be very important, especially if you're making a calculator.
Hope I helped! 😁
Edit: I forgot to mention that the functions subtract, addition, multiplication, and division all have this problem

// do something with your result ;D
