Let's divide 981277 by 4
We want to figure out the number of times 981277 can be divided by 4.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 4, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 8 from 9, we get 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 4

On to step 2:
4 can be fit into 18 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 16 away from 18, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 4

Advancing to step 3:
4 can be fit into 21 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 245.0
If we take 20 away from 21, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 4

Advancing to step 4:
The number 4 fits into 12 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2453.0
If we take 12 away from 12, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 4

Step 5:
The number 4 fits into 7 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24531.0
Subtract 4 from 7 to get 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 4

On to step 6:
If we divide 37 by 4, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 245319.0
Subtracting 36 from 37 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 10 by 4, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 245319.2
Subtract 8 from 10 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
4 goes into 20 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 245319.25
If we take 20 away from 20, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 4, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 245319.25
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 245319.25
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 245319.25 with a balance of 0.0.
