Division in Mysql query

Question

I have 2 different query which will return values : 1502.00 and 6

SELECT replace(CURRENT_VALUE,'$','') curVal
FROM form_attributes_values
WHERE TEST_ID=2
AND ATTRIBUTE_ID = (
    SELECT ATTRIBUTE_ID
    FROM form_attributes
    WHERE FORM_ID=6
    AND FORM_FIELD_NAME='REGRINDABLECUTTERCOST'
)

and

SELECT replace(CURRENT_VALUE,'$','') curVal
FROM form_attributes_values
WHERE TEST_ID=2
AND ATTRIBUTE_ID = (
    SELECT ATTRIBUTE_ID
    FROM form_attributes
    WHERE FORM_ID=6
    AND FORM_FIELD_NAME='REGRINDSPOSSIBLE'
)

I am trying to perform division query1/query2 (1502.00/6) which should return value 250.333333

but the value i am getting is something like 0.16666666666666

below are the types which is have tried so for: Type 1:

select (a.curVal / b.curVal) as final_count
from (
    SELECT replace(CURRENT_VALUE,'$','') curVal
    FROM form_attributes_values
    WHERE TEST_ID=2 AND ATTRIBUTE_ID = (
        SELECT ATTRIBUTE_ID
        FROM form_attributes
        WHERE FORM_ID=6
        AND FORM_FIELD_NAME='REGRINDABLECUTTERCOST'
    )
) a,
(
    SELECT replace(CURRENT_VALUE,'$','') curVal
    FROM form_attributes_values
    WHERE TEST_ID=2
    AND ATTRIBUTE_ID = (
        SELECT ATTRIBUTE_ID
        FROM form_attributes
        WHERE FORM_ID=6
        AND FORM_FIELD_NAME='REGRINDSPOSSIBLE'
    )
) b;

Type 2:

SELECT replace(CURRENT_VALUE,'$','') / (
    SELECT replace(CURRENT_VALUE,'$','') curVal
    FROM form_attributes_values
    WHERE TEST_ID=2
    AND ATTRIBUTE_ID = (
        SELECT ATTRIBUTE_ID
        FROM form_attributes
        WHERE FORM_ID=6
        AND FORM_FIELD_NAME='REGRINDSPOSSIBLE'
    )
) curVal
FROM form_attributes_values
WHERE TEST_ID=2
AND ATTRIBUTE_ID = (
    SELECT ATTRIBUTE_ID
    FROM form_attributes
    WHERE FORM_ID=6
    AND FORM_FIELD_NAME='REGRINDABLECUTTERCOST'
)

both the type return 0.166666666666667 am i missing anything...?

Answer 1

Looks like you have problem with first query only, because 1 / 6 = 0.166666666666667.

Answer 2

OK so i just tried this in the SQL console on PHPmyAdmin and got the answer 250.3333

SELECT cast(1502.00 AS unsigned) / cast(6 AS unsigned);
