Can anyone post a vhdl code that shows addition and multiplication of real variables/signals right from usage of libraries, to declaration of signals, to the addition and multiplication code?

Can anyone post a vhdl code that shows addition and multiplication of floating point numbers right from usage of libraries, to declaration of signals, to the addition and multiplication code?

What I have tried:

We have googled how to implement floating point numbers but there is no clear answer.
We have tried using package ieee.float_package.all; but the error message shows that there is no such package

We have searched on google, but there is no concrete answer. Just a small code about addition and multiplication of real variables/signals in vhdl will help
