You can use ByteConverter from rRandomAccessFile to convert bytes to floats.

Ignore my previous answer, it was for a different scenario.

When you have a text representation of a number stored in an array of bytes, you need to first convert it to a string:

B4X:

Dim L() As Byte = bc.SubString2("1234567890",5,8)
Dim n As Int = bc.StringFromBytes(L)
Log(n * 100)

I'm getting: n*100 = 67800

Can you upload your program?

You cannot hold value 67.800 in an INT, not even in a UINT
Max value of an INT is 32.767
Max value of a UINT is 65.535
Max value of a LONG is 2.147.483.647

B4X:

Dim L() As Byte = bc.SubString2("1234567890",5,8)
Dim n As Long = bc.StringFromBytes(L)
Log(n * 100)
