We look at the division of 861981 by 89 
We want to divide 861981 by 89.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 89

Let's proceed to step 2:
86 divided by 89 is 0 with a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 86 after subtracting 0 from 86.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 86 and continue with: 861 / 89

Moving on to step 3:
89 goes into 861 9 times with a remainder of 60.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 801 away from 861, we end up with 60.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 60, then repeat: 609 / 89

Going ahead to step 4:
89 can be fit into 609 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 96.0
Deduct 534 from 609 and we're left with 75.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 75 and continue with: 758 / 89

Step 5:
If we divide 758 by 89, we get 8 and a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 968.0
If we subtract 712 from 758, we get 46.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 461 / 89

Moving on to step 6:
89 goes into 461 5 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9685.0
If we subtract 445 from 461, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 89 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9685.1
Subtract 89 from 160 to get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 710 by 89, we get 7 with a remainder of 87.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9685.17
Subtracting 623 from 710 leaves us with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 870 by 89, we get 9 and a remainder of 69.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9685.179
Subtract 801 from 870 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 690 by 89, we get 7 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9685.1797
Deduct 623 from 690 and we're left with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 670 by 89, we get 7 with a remainder of 47.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9685.17977
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 623 from 670.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

The final result is 9685.17977 with a remainder of 4.7e-05.
