Let's divide 437278 by 98
Our goal is to divide 437278 by 98.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 43 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
The number 98 fits into 43 0 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 43, we end up with 43.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 437 / 98

On to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 437 4 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 392 from 437 and we're left with 45.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 452 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 452 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 60.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44.0
Subtract 392 from 452 to get 60.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 607 / 98

On to step 5:
607 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 19.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 446.0
Deduct 588 from 607 and we're left with 19.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 198 / 98

On to step 6:
98 can be fit into 198 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4462.0
If we take 196 away from 198, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 98 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4462.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 98 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4462.02
Subtract 196 from 200 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
98 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4462.02
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
400 divided by 98 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4462.0204
If we subtract 392 from 400, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
98 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4462.0204
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 12:
98 can be fit into 800 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4462.020408
Subtract 784 from 800 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 13:
160 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 62.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4462.0204081
If we subtract 98 from 160, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 98 fits into 620 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4462.02040816
If we subtract 588 from 620, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4462.02040816 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
