We're dividing 98976648 by 231 
We want to divide 98976648 by 231.

Let's proceed to step 1:
231 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 231

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 231, we get 0 and a remainder of 98.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 98, we end up with 98.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 98, then repeat: 989 / 231

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 989 by 231, we get 4 and a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 924 from 989, we get 65.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 65 and continue: 657 / 231

Moving on to step 4:
231 goes into 657 2 times with a remainder of 195.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 462 from 657 leaves us with 195.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 195, then repeat: 1956 / 231

Let's proceed to step 5:
231 can be fit into 1956 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 108.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 428.0
The remainder is 108 after subtracting 1848 from 1956.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 108 and continue with: 1086 / 231

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 1086 by 231, we get 4 with a remainder of 162.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4284.0
Subtracting 924 from 1086 leaves us with 162.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 162 and repeat the process: 1624 / 231

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 1624 by 231, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42847.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 1617 from 1624.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 231

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 78 by 231, we get 0 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 428470.0
Deduct 0 from 78 and we're left with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
231 goes into 780 3 times with a remainder of 87.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 428470.3
Deduct 693 from 780 and we're left with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Step 10:
231 goes into 870 3 times with a remainder of 177.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 428470.33
Subtracting 693 from 870 leaves us with 177.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1770, and continue the process.

The final result is 428470.33 with a remainder of 0.177.
