I'm trying to produce a decimal fraction by dividing integer fields
like this fragment of the query:

...((cntoh0.count + cntoh1.count)/ttl_deptcat.ttlcount) as "Ratio"...

How do I get fractions when dividing integers? Cast as something?

Exactly. Just as in most computer languages, incidentally:

# select 1 / 2 as x;
x
---
0
(1 row)

# select 1 / 2::float as x;
  x
-----
0.5
(1 row)
