We're dividing 988946 by 49 
Let's see how many times 49 fits into 988946.

Step 1:
When dividing 9 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 49

Moving on to step 2:
49 can be fit into 98 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 98 from 98 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 49

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 8 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 49

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 49 fits into 89 1 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 201.0
If we take 49 away from 89, we end up with 40.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 404 / 49

Step 5:
49 goes into 404 8 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2018.0
Subtracting 392 from 404 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 126 / 49

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 126 by 49, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20182.0
If we take 98 away from 126, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 49 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20182.5
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 245 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 8:
350 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20182.57
Subtract 343 from 350 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 70 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20182.571
Subtract 49 from 70 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
49 can be fit into 210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20182.5714
Subtract 196 from 210 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 49, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 20182.57142
Deduct 98 from 140 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
420 divided by 49 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20182.571428
Subtracting 392 from 420 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 280 by 49, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20182.5714285
Deduct 245 from 280 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
350 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 20182.57142857
Subtract 343 from 350 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The final result is 20182.57142857 with a remainder of 7e-09.
