Calculating while using command offset

Hallo!
I'm trying to tape a division while using an offset: e.g.

offset > 120/7.5

The problem is the PC doesn't accept decimal numbers.
A solution could be:

offset > 1200/75 in order to make numbers without decimal.

I wonder whether there's a variable for using decimals...

Thanks

AutoCAD won't accept decimals *as parts of fractions*; it will, however,
accept 1200/75, which evaluates the same. You could also use (/ 120 7.5) --
including the "(" and ")".
