We're dividing 968786 by 4 
We're looking to find how many times 4 goes into 968786.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 4, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 8 from 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 4

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 4, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 16 from 16 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 4

Going ahead to step 3:
8 divided by 4 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242.0
If we subtract 8 from 8, we get 0.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 4

On to step 4:
4 goes into 7 1 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2421.0
If we take 4 away from 7, we end up with 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 4

Advancing to step 5:
4 can be fit into 38 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 24219.0
Subtracting 36 from 38 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 4

Step 6:
26 divided by 4 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242196.0
If we subtract 24 from 26, we 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.

Step 7:
4 can be fit into 20 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 242196.5
Deduct 20 from 20 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 0 by 4, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 242196.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242196.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 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 242196.5 with a balance of 0.0.
