It's a bit late, but I couldn't help it...

% xemacs -q -no-site-file -batch -eval '(message "%f" (/ 20.0 13.0))'
1.538462
% 

(And while we're at it:
% python -c 'print 20.0/13.0'
1.53846153846
% python -c 'print 22222222222222222222L * 77777777777777777777L'
1728395061728395061693827160493827160494L
)
