NumericJev introduces a training‑free numerical decoding algorithm that allows large language models with Jev‑like structured‑choice interfaces to output precise numerical values. The method refines a numerical range using a multiway decision tree, achieving lower mean absolute error than direct selection from a candidate list. Experiments on an arithmetic benchmark show a 2.93 percentage‑point improvement, and a historical‑index study reports a 4.58% mean relative recall error with zero readout error when the value is supplied.

Large language models achieve strong performance on arithmetic reasoning benchmarks, and one common response to arithmetic brittleness is to delegate computation to code. Yet models are still often used in settings where they must reason directly from natural language, and trustworthy models should solve small-number arithmetic word problems without external tools.
