868985 ÷ 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 868985.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 98

On to step 2:
86 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 86 to get 86.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 86 and continue: 868 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 868 8 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 784 from 868 and we're left with 84.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 84, then carry on: 849 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
98 goes into 849 8 times with a remainder of 65.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 88.0
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 784 from 849.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 658 / 98

Advancing to step 5:
98 goes into 658 6 times with a remainder of 70.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 886.0
Deduct 588 from 658 and we're left with 70.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 705 / 98

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 705 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8867.0
Deduct 686 from 705 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 92.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8867.1
Subtracting 98 from 190 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
920 divided by 98 is 9 with a remainder of 38.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8867.19
Subtracting 882 from 920 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 9:
98 goes into 380 3 times with a remainder of 86.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8867.193
If we take 294 away from 380, we end up with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
98 can be fit into 860 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8867.1938
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 784 from 860.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 760 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 74.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8867.19387
If we take 686 away from 760, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
98 can be fit into 740 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8867.193877
If we subtract 686 from 740, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8867.193877, with a leftover of 5.4e-06.
