Hi,

I am using ELK GA 5.0.0. I have created a scripted field which divides values in a number field like;

```
return (doc['elapsed'].value/10);

```

but I am getting data like below;

```
18 1
225 22
9 0
166 16
168 16
24 24
237 23
287 28
490 49
122 12

```

But the expected output is like;

```
18 1.8
225 22.5
9 0.9
166 16.6
168 16.8
240 24.0
237 23.7
287 28.7
490 49.0
122 12.2

```

How can I fix this? Thanks in advance..

Try this:

`return (doc['elapsed'].value/10.0);`
