We divide 558539 by 98
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 558539.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 98

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 55 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 55 to get 55.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 558 / 98

Advancing to step 3:
558 divided by 98 is 5 with a remainder of 68.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 490 from 558 and we're left with 68.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 685 / 98

Step 4:
If we divide 685 by 98, we get 6 and a remainder of 97.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we take 588 away from 685, we end up with 97.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 97 and repeat the process: 973 / 98

On to step 5:
The number 98 fits into 973 9 times, leaving a remainder of 91.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 569.0
Subtract 882 from 973 to get 91.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 91, then carry on: 919 / 98

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 919 by 98, we get 9 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5699.0
If we subtract 882 from 919, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 370 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 76.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5699.3
Subtract 294 from 370 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 760 by 98, we get 7 and a remainder of 74.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5699.37
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 98 fits into 740 7 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5699.377
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.

After the division, we end up with 5699.377 and a remainder of 0.0054.
