What doesn't work? The problem wasn't the data type. The problem was the stupid code.

so what are you recommending i change it too?  How long does it take to make those calculations?, is it causing a measurable delay?

No, the onus is on you to explain WHY you are doing what you are doing. It makes no sense. You are not averaging anything. Pretending that you are doesn't make it so.
