We're dividing 2988834 by 970 
Let's see how many times 970 fits into 2988834.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 970 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 (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 970

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 970, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 298 / 970

On to step 3:
970 can be fit into 298 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 298.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 298 leaves us with 298.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 298, then carry on: 2988 / 970

Let's proceed to step 4:
970 can be fit into 2988 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 2910 from 2988.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 78, then carry on: 788 / 970

Going ahead to step 5:
970 can be fit into 788 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 788.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 788 after subtracting 0 from 788.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 788, then repeat: 7883 / 970

Advancing to step 6:
7883 divided by 970 is 8 with a remainder of 123.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 308.0
Subtract 7760 from 7883 to get 123.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 123, then repeat: 1234 / 970

On to step 7:
The number 970 fits into 1234 1 times, leaving a remainder of 264.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3081.0
Subtracting 970 from 1234 leaves us with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
970 goes into 2640 2 times with a remainder of 700.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3081.2
If we subtract 1940 from 2640, we get 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 7000 by 970, we get 7 with a remainder of 210.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3081.27
Subtracting 6790 from 7000 leaves us with 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2100, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
2100 divided by 970 is 2 with a remainder of 160.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3081.272
Subtract 1940 from 2100 to get 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 1600 by 970, we get 1 with a remainder of 630.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3081.2721
The remainder is 630 after subtracting 970 from 1600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 970 fits into 6300 6 times, leaving a remainder of 480.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3081.27216
If we subtract 5820 from 6300, we get 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 4800 by 970, we get 4 and a remainder of 920.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3081.272164
If we take 3880 away from 4800, we end up with 920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9200, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
970 goes into 9200 9 times with a remainder of 470.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3081.2721649
The remainder is 470 after subtracting 8730 from 9200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 4700 by 970, we get 4 and a remainder of 820.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3081.27216494
If we subtract 3880 from 4700, we get 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3081.27216494 and a remainder of 8.2e-07.
