Well in code we're using C#'s decimal type (128 bit. 96 bits are used for an integer and the rest used for the sign and scaling factor) [0]. It's essentially just floating point applied to a base 10 integer rather than a binary one.

In the SQL server database the column types are usually decimal(18,5) or decimal(25,12) [1]
