That error can be avoided by switching to floating point math.
dfdl:inputValueCalc="{ xs:string(202996.0 div 524287.0) }"
All I did was add ".0" at the end of the numbers to make them floating
point.
The error is happening long before rounding applies. It's the "div"
operator failing here since div on two integers produces a decimal number.
