Code:
PI = 3.1415926
kx =  PI/320
c1 dd kx
c2 dd PI/200

When you define numerical constant without size operator, fasm by default defines 64-bit value, so:
Code:
PI = 3.1415926    

defined constant PI with 64-bit value, which is then treated as a 64-bit binary data, and other calculations are done on the integer interpretation of it.
To define constant with 32-bit FP representation of 3.1415916, you should use:
Code:
PI = dword 3.1415926    

But remember that all arithmetical calculations in fasm are the integer operations.
