    Hi Akash_003 ,

     

    First use the custom column to divide columns A and B to get the Custom column change it to Decimal Number, save it to Desktop, change the Custom column Formatting to 14 decimals, and then enter Power Query and you're done. To verify, I multiplied the custom column. Even though the display is omitted, the actual value is correct (lower left data).

     

    Hope it helps!
