Description: When the values used in Calculated Formula questions contain decimals, the decimal point is used despite the native decimal separator is for the Language Pack decimal comma.

Steps to Replicate:

  1. Log into Blackboard Learn Ultra Experience as an administrator
  2. Create an Ultra Course and enroll an instructor in it
  3. Select the Language Pack that uses a decimal comma by one of the following options
            Option 1:
                Set the course language to the one that uses Decimal Comma.
            Option 2:
                Set user's language pack to the one that uses Decimal Comma.
  4. Access the course and create a test
            Create a calculated formula question. For example:
                Question text: How much is [x]*[y]?
                Formula: x*y
            Click on option Display formula to students
            For values select range 0,01-9,99 and select at least 1 decimal place
  5. Finish creating the question and save the test
  6.  Access the Student Preview mode and observe the test

Observed Behavior:
The question uses decimal point, the formula uses decimal comma.

Expected Behavior:
The only expected decimal separator is decimal comma.
