We divide 88708 by 98
Let's see how many times 98 fits into 88708.

On to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 98

Going ahead to step 2:
98 goes into 88 0 times with a remainder of 88.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 88, we get 88.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 88 and continue with: 887 / 98

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 887 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 882 away from 887, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 50 / 98

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 50 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 90.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 508 / 98

Step 5:
98 goes into 508 5 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 905.0
Subtract 490 from 508 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 180 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 82.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 905.1
Subtracting 98 from 180 leaves us with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Step 7:
820 divided by 98 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 905.18
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 784 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 98 fits into 360 3 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 905.183
If we take 294 away from 360, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 660 by 98, we get 6 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 905.1836
If we subtract 588 from 660, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
720 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 905.18367
If we subtract 686 from 720, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 98 fits into 340 3 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 905.183673
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 294 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 12:
98 can be fit into 460 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 905.1836734
Subtracting 392 from 460 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 98 fits into 680 6 times, leaving a remainder of 92.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 905.18367346
Deduct 588 from 680 and we're left with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

The final result is 905.18367346 with a remainder of 9.2e-08.
