how to show decimals in sql instead of 0

I am trying to get the percent and it just shows up as zero. I want to show two decimal places such as 0.65 Here is a piece of the query I am selecting:

select count(numbers)/count(othernumbers) decimal(3,2) as"rate"

if I use this it shows up as 0 and gets rid of the rest

select count(numbers)/count(othernumbers) as"rate"

Answer

SELECT FORMAT(this / that, 2) as rate

Meanwhile, I question whether COUNT(numbers) is what you want. That counts how many rows have a non-NULL value in the column numbers.

Also, fraction is usually more like x / (x+y) — meaning the fraction of the total (x+y) that is x.

A “percentage” needs 100* somewhere. 13/20 is the fraction 0.65 or the percentage 65.00 .
