We look at the division of 21480826 by 989 
We want to divide 21480826 by 989.

Advancing to step 1:
989 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 989

Step 2:
21 divided by 989 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 214 / 989

Advancing to step 3:
989 goes into 214 0 times with a remainder of 214.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 214, we get 214.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 214, then repeat: 2148 / 989

Advancing to step 4:
2148 divided by 989 is 2 with a remainder of 170.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 170 after subtracting 1978 from 2148.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 170, then repeat: 1700 / 989

Step 5:
If we divide 1700 by 989, we get 1 and a remainder of 711.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 989 from 1700 to get 711.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 711 and repeat the process: 7118 / 989

Advancing to step 6:
989 can be fit into 7118 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 195.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 217.0
Deduct 6923 from 7118 and we're left with 195.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 195 and repeat the process: 1952 / 989

Going ahead to step 7:
1952 divided by 989 is 1 with a remainder of 963.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2171.0
Subtract 989 from 1952 to get 963.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 963, then repeat: 9636 / 989

Step 8:
The number 989 fits into 9636 9 times, leaving a remainder of 735.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21719.0
The remainder is 735 after subtracting 8901 from 9636.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7350, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 7350 by 989, we get 7 and a remainder of 427.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21719.7
Subtract 6923 from 7350 to get 427.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4270, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 4270 by 989, we get 4 with a remainder of 314.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21719.74
Deduct 3956 from 4270 and we're left with 314.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3140, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 989 fits into 3140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 173.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21719.743
The remainder is 173 after subtracting 2967 from 3140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1730, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
1730 divided by 989 is 1 with a remainder of 741.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21719.7431
Deduct 989 from 1730 and we're left with 741.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 7410 by 989, we get 7 and a remainder of 487.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21719.74317
Subtracting 6923 from 7410 leaves us with 487.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4870, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 989 fits into 4870 4 times, leaving a remainder of 914.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 21719.743174
If we take 3956 away from 4870, we end up with 914.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
989 can be fit into 9140 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 239.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21719.7431749
Subtract 8901 from 9140 to get 239.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2390, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 2390 by 989, we get 2 and a remainder of 412.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 21719.74317492
If we subtract 1978 from 2390, we get 412.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 21719.74317492 with a remaining 4.12e-07.
