980987 ÷ 99 
We're looking to find how many times 99 goes into 980987.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 99, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 99

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 98.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 98 after subtracting 0 from 98.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 98 and continue: 980 / 99

Let's proceed to step 3:
980 divided by 99 is 9 with a remainder of 89.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 891 from 980.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 89, then carry on: 899 / 99

On to step 4:
If we divide 899 by 99, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 99.0
If we take 891 away from 899, we end up with 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 99

Step 5:
88 divided by 99 is 0 with a remainder of 88.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 990.0
Subtracting 0 from 88 leaves us with 88.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 88 and continue: 887 / 99

On to step 6:
887 divided by 99 is 8 with a remainder of 95.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9908.0
Subtracting 792 from 887 leaves us with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
99 can be fit into 950 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9908.9
Subtract 891 from 950 to get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
590 divided by 99 is 5 with a remainder of 95.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9908.95
If we take 495 away from 590, we end up with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 950 by 99, we get 9 with a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9908.959
If we take 891 away from 950, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 99 fits into 590 5 times, leaving a remainder of 95.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9908.9595
Deduct 495 from 590 and we're left with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
950 divided by 99 is 9 with a remainder of 59.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9908.95959
If we take 891 away from 950, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 590 by 99, we get 5 and a remainder of 95.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9908.959595
Deduct 495 from 590 and we're left with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
950 divided by 99 is 9 with a remainder of 59.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9908.9595959
If we take 891 away from 950, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
99 can be fit into 590 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 95.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9908.95959595
If we subtract 495 from 590, we get 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 9908.95959595, with a leftover of 9.5e-08.
