Well depends, which Modula 2 are you using?  Try looking at the
VAL procedure.

In TopSpeed it would be something like this:
      i: INTEGER;
      x: LONGREAL;
      ....
      x:= VAL(LONGREAL, i);

Of course some other version may (prob'ly will) do it differently.
You might also check the FLOAT procedure (in the "standard" (3th ed)
it's for converting CARDINAL to REAL).
