Answer 1

Change fieldtype to decimal(4,2). Details: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/precision-math-decimal-characteristics.html

The declaration syntax for a DECIMAL column is DECIMAL(M,D). The ranges of values for the arguments in MySQL 5.7 are as follows:

M is the maximum number of digits (the precision). It has a range of 1 to 65.

D is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point (the scale). It has a range of 0 to 30 and must be no larger than M.
