code i've tried

What am i doing wrong ?

Code:
sum1=$((add1 + add2))
echo "Success = $sum1"
sum2=$((add3 - add4))
echo "Attempts = $sum2"
final="scale=4; ($sum1 / $sum2 ) * 100" | bc
echo " Success rate = $final"

No percentage is worked out, it only is printing Sum1 and Sum2 values.

Code:
Success = 7513
Attempts - custom = 9150
Success Rate =

what i'm expecting is the below output.

Code:
Success = 7513
Attempts - custom = 9150
Success Rate = 82.10

PAPI_num_counters(3)						       PAPI						      PAPI_num_counters(3)

NAME
PAPI_num_counters - Get the number of hardware counters available on the system. SYNOPSIS
Detailed Description @par C Interface: int PAPI_num_counters( void ); Postcondition: Initializes the library to PAPI_HIGH_LEVEL_INITED if necessary. Return values: PAPI_EINVAL papi.h is different from the version used to compile the PAPI library. PAPI_ENOMEM Insufficient memory to complete the operation. PAPI_ESYS A system or C library call failed inside PAPI, see the errno variable. Examples: * int num_hwcntrs; * // The installation does not support PAPI * if ((num_hwcntrs = PAPI_num_counters()) < 0 ) * handle_error(1); * // The installation supports PAPI, but has no counters * if ((num_hwcntrs = PAPI_num_counters()) == 0 ) * fprintf(stderr,"Info:: This machine does not provide hardware counters.0); * PAPI_num_counters() returns the optimal length of the values array for the high level functions. This value corresponds to the number of hardware counters supported by the current CPU component. Note: This function only works for the CPU component. To determine the number of counters on another component, use the low level PAPI_num_cmp_hwctrs(). Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for PAPI from the source code.
