- `numerator` — `Fractional number | Integer`
- `denominator` — `Fractional number | Integer`
- `fallback_value` — `Fractional number | Integer`


**Return type**: `Fractional number`

#### Example {#examples}



| **[numerator]**   | **[denominator]**   | **FDIV_SAFE([numerator], [denominator])**   | **FDIV_SAFE([numerator], [denominator], 42)**   |
