# Summary 

The DVM should support data requests for the `NUMERICAL` data identifier. `NUMERICAL` is intended to be used with ancillary data to allow anyone to request an answer to a question with a numerical answer from UMA governance. This UMIP does not attempt to put any other restrictions on the content of the query, and instead leaves construction of the query up to the requester within ancillary data.

Data settlement can happen in four ways:
- Return the correct numerical value to answer the question in ancillary data, if the question can be resolved.
- Return the `unresolvable` value from ancillary data if the answer cannot be determined.
- Return the `tooEarly` value if the answer cannot be determined AND there is either an `earlyExpiration:1` key value pair present in ancillary data, or there is a specific last possible request timestamp listed or implied in the ancillary data question and the active data request timestamp falls before that.
