# Fixed-Point Numbers > 🚧 Status: Currently only the 64-bit wide `Fix64` and `UFix64` types are available. More fixed-point number types will be added in a future release. Fixed-point numbers are useful for representing fractional values. They have a fixed number of digits after decimal point. They are essentially integers which are scaled by a factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be represented as 1230 with a scaling factor of 1/1000. The scaling factor is the same for all values of the same type and stays the same during calculations. Fixed-point numbers in Cadence have a scaling factor with a power of 10, instead of a power of 2, i.e. they are decimal, not binary. Signed fixed-point number types have the prefix `Fix`, have the following factors, and can represent values in the following ranges: * **`Fix64`**: Factor 1/100,000,000; -92233720368.54775808 through 92233720368.54775807 Unsigned fixed-point number types have the prefix `UFix`, have the following factors, and can represent values in the following ranges: * **`UFix64`**: Factor 1/100,000,000; 0.0 through 184467440737.09551615 --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://max-daunarovich.gitbook.io/flow-network/introduction/values-and-types/fixed-point-numbers.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
