| I am trying to include a calculation in my SP of how many pounds are consumed in a day with the following:CAST((50/DATEDIFF(day, date1, date2)) AS DECIMAL(8,2)) LbsPerDayIt will not calculate in decimal, only a whole number since it is a day. Is there a way to make it into a decimal?$50/20 days = 2.5, displays as 2 |
