So, is there a reasonable way to get the value of two Integral types

You have two options:

(1) use fromIntegral to coerce an Integral value to a RealFrac;

(2) use (div) (division on Integrals) instead of (/).

Which to use depends on what you're planning to do with the result. In this case, I'd probably use (/) and (fromIntegral).
