Let's divide 428593 by 98
We want to figure out the number of times 428593 can be divided by 98.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 98 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 42 leaves us with 42.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 428 / 98

Advancing to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 428 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 392 from 428 to get 36.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 365 / 98

Step 4:
The number 98 fits into 365 3 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 43.0
Subtracting 294 from 365 leaves us with 71.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 71, then repeat: 719 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 719 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 437.0
Subtract 686 from 719 to get 33.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 333 / 98

Let's proceed to step 6:
98 can be fit into 333 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4373.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 294 from 333.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 7:
390 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4373.3
Deduct 294 from 390 and we're left with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 98 fits into 960 9 times, leaving a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4373.39
If we subtract 882 from 960, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 780 by 98, we get 7 and a remainder of 94.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4373.397
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 686 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 98 fits into 940 9 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4373.3979
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 882 from 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
580 divided by 98 is 5 with a remainder of 90.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4373.39795
If we take 490 away from 580, we end up with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
98 goes into 900 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4373.397959
If we subtract 882 from 900, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
98 can be fit into 180 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 82.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4373.3979591
Subtract 98 from 180 to get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 820 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4373.39795918
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 784 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4373.39795918 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
