May be I misunderstand the question
... but won't the following function return what you are looking for?

Create or Replace Function HSRRRPG/FRACTIONAL
(ParNumerator Integer Default 0,
ParDenominator Integer Default 1)
Returns Decimal(31, 9)
LANGUAGE SQL
MODIFIES SQL DATA
DETERMINISTIC
CALLED ON NULL INPUT
Begin
Declare Continue Handler For SQLEXCEPTION Return 0;
Return (Cast(ParNumerator as Dec(31, 9)) / ParDenominator);
End;


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
