We're dividing 204790 by 98 
Let's see how many times 98 fits into 204790.

Advancing to step 1:
2 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 20 / 98

Going ahead to step 2:
98 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 204 / 98

On to step 3:
If we divide 204 by 98, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 196 from 204 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 98

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 98 fits into 87 0 times, leaving a remainder of 87.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 87 to get 87.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 87, then repeat: 879 / 98

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 879 by 98, we get 8 and a remainder of 95.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 208.0
Deduct 784 from 879 and we're left with 95.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 95, then repeat: 950 / 98

On to step 6:
The number 98 fits into 950 9 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2089.0
Subtracting 882 from 950 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 7:
680 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 92.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2089.6
Subtract 588 from 680 to get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 920 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2089.69
If we subtract 882 from 920, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
98 goes into 380 3 times with a remainder of 86.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2089.693
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 860 by 98, we get 8 and a remainder of 76.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2089.6938
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
760 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2089.69387
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 686 from 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
740 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2089.693877
Deduct 686 from 740 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2089.693877 with a remaining 5.4e-06.
