   ### Describe the usage question you have. Please include as many useful details as  possible.
   
   
   ```
   select 1.00/id from test;
   
   id is decimal(15,2) which is  16906.24
   1.00 is decimal(3,2)
   but the result is decimal(3, 0);
   ```
   
   looks like it's follow the rule that is
   rule1
   ```
   Result<TypeHolder> ResolveDecimalDivisionOutput(KernelContext*,
                                                   const std::vector<TypeHolder>& types) {
     return ResolveDecimalBinaryOperationOutput(
         types, [](int32_t p1, int32_t s1, int32_t p2, int32_t s2) {
           DCHECK_GE(s1, s2);
           const int32_t scale = s1 - s2;
           const int32_t precision = p1;
           return std::make_pair(precision, scale);
         });
   }
   ```
   but the document is show that
   rule 2:
   ```
   scale = max(4, s1 + p2 - s2 + 1)
   precision = p1 - s1 + s2 + scale
   ```
   How could i use the second rule?
