Calculation - Result not accurate if numbe too big

Dear all,

Below is my script,

totalCount=57006427
totalSummCount=1207590
let percentageSumTmp1=${totalCount}-${totalSummCount}
let percentageSumTmp2=${percentageSumTmp1}*100

The expected result for percentageSumTmp2 should be (5579883700),
but when I execute the script in unix env i get 1284916404 ..
If I remove 1 digit number of the totalCount , then i able to get correct result

anyone , know how to fix it ?


Many thanks.
