863987 ÷ 98 
We want to divide 863987 by 98.

Moving on to step 1:
98 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 86 / 98

On to step 2:
86 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 86.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 86 and we're left with 86.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 86, then repeat: 863 / 98

On to step 3:
When dividing 863 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 79.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 784 from 863 to get 79.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 799 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 799 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
Deduct 784 from 799 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 158 / 98

On to step 5:
If we divide 158 by 98, we get 1 and a remainder of 60.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 881.0
Subtract 98 from 158 to get 60.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 60 and repeat the process: 607 / 98

On to step 6:
98 can be fit into 607 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8816.0
Subtract 588 from 607 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
98 can be fit into 190 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 92.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8816.1
Subtract 98 from 190 to get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 920 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8816.19
If we subtract 882 from 920, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 98 fits into 380 3 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8816.193
If we subtract 294 from 380, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Step 10:
860 divided by 98 is 8 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8816.1938
Subtract 784 from 860 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 760 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 74.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8816.19387
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
740 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8816.193877
Deduct 686 from 740 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8816.193877 with a balance of 5.4e-06.
