Need help with 'division' operation in RTF template

Question

We are using variables in RTF template to perform all data manipulations
To calculate columns where we need to do division operation, using ‘/’ or ‘DIV’ is not working.
Using <?xdofx: op1 DIV op2?> is working only when op1 and op2 are numbers like ex. <?xdofx: 100 DIV 50?> returns result 2.
But the same tag used for columns or variables is not working.
For ex.
<?xdofx: (xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'var1')) DIV xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'var2') ?> is not returning any result, though
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘var1’)?>
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘var2’)?>
both are returning values stand alone.

<chuckle /> Methinks you're right. It looks like the
copy/paste monster
has been munching on it. One guess to fix it would be to open
it in a
text editor and change this:
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" -->
<!-- TemplateEndEditable -->
<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="head" -->
To this:
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" -->
<!-- TemplateEndEditable -->
And change this:
<!-- InstanceEndEditable --></head>
To this:
</head>
