This is not a clear question, just bc syntax errors. bc gives kind of ancient looking errors back from tty days.

4.8.5 is not a number - not floating point, not an integer.

That series of numbers has to be compared as a string:

$ a=1.2.3
$ b=1.2.3.0
$ [ "$a" = "$b" ]  || echo 'not equal'
not equal
$ b="1.2.3"
$ [ "$a" = "$b" ] && echo 'equal'
equal
