Div function always results Zero when denominator is greater than numerator

[#1]

Hi,

I am using "straight table" chart which has couple of columns. For one column I am using the expression like

Div(value_numerator, value_denominator).

Div(3,8) gives me '0' and not 0.375

I need the values in % format. So I can do, Div(value_numerator * 100, value_denominator), but when I select 'Show in Percent' in 'Number' tab in the properties, it again multiply my result with 100 giving 3750%. All I need is 37.5%.

Thanks in advance for your help.

The help file says

"Integer division. Both parameters are interpreted as real numbers, i.e. they do not have to be integers. The result is the integer part of the result of the arithmetic division, a real number. "

Why not just do A/B?
