Some phones have hardware floating point, the majority not.
I'm not in a position to estimate the counts of Android devices that have an FPU vs those that don't, or suggest that all relevant of them have.

But AFAIK, when building the Linux Kernel for AR; chips without FPU, you can include an FPU simulation. With that the user software (other than slower execution) does not notice that there is no FPU. As this only costs some hundred bytes of memory, I do suppose that the Kernel for Android devices might be done in that ways.
