Arithmetic type - Implicit conversions

An expression of integral type (unsigned long long) is being implicitly converted to a floating type (float). Is this intended ?

Implicit type conversions of this nature can occur in the context of:

extern void ef(float f);

extern float foo(unsigned long long n)
{
    float f = n;                /* Message 3873 - Initialization */

    f = n;                      /* Message 3873 - Assignment */

    f = f + n;                  /* Message 3873 - Balancing */

    ef(n);                      /* Message 3873 - Function argument */

    return n;                   /* Message 4073 - Function return */
}
