The answer to your question depends on what programming language you use.
In C, C++:
10/4 =2 or maybe
10/4.0 = 2.5
If the result is assigned to a variable of real type. as you can see, the compiler converts there result to a real type if at least one operand is declared of a real type.
In Python
10/4= 2.5
10/5=2.0
10//4=2
10//5=2
There is no static typing in this language, and the type of result depends on the type of division operator used, i.e. / or //

It's the same division operator that we use in maths
