We divide 988658 by 84
We want to figure out the number of times 988658 can be divided by 84.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 84

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 84, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 84 from 98.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 148 / 84

Going ahead to step 3:
148 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 84 away from 148, we end up with 64.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 646 / 84

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 646 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 117.0
If we subtract 588 from 646, we get 58.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 585 / 84

Going ahead to step 5:
84 goes into 585 6 times with a remainder of 81.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1176.0
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 504 from 585.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 81 and continue: 818 / 84

Step 6:
The number 84 fits into 818 9 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11769.0
Subtract 756 from 818 to 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 7:
When dividing 620 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11769.7
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 588 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 8:
320 divided by 84 is 3 with a remainder of 68.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11769.73
Subtracting 252 from 320 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 680 by 84, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11769.738
Subtracting 672 from 680 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
80 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11769.738
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
84 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11769.73809
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 756 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 440 by 84, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11769.738095
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 420 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 84, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11769.7380952
Subtract 168 from 200 to 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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 320 by 84, we get 3 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11769.73809523
Subtracting 252 from 320 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.

Our division results in 11769.73809523 with a remaining 6.8e-08.
