We look at the division of 344988 by 98 
We want to divide 344988 by 98.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 98

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 34 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 34 leaves us with 34.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 344 / 98

Going ahead to step 3:
98 can be fit into 344 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 294 from 344 to get 50.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 509 / 98

On to step 4:
98 goes into 509 5 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 490 from 509.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 198 / 98

Advancing to step 5:
The number 98 fits into 198 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 352.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 196 from 198.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 98

Let's proceed to step 6:
28 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3520.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 98 fits into 280 2 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3520.2
If we take 196 away from 280, we end up with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 840 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3520.28
If we take 784 away from 840, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
98 goes into 560 5 times with a remainder of 70.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3520.285
If we subtract 490 from 560, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
98 goes into 700 7 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3520.2857
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 686 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
98 can be fit into 140 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3520.28571
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 98 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
420 divided by 98 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3520.285714
If we take 392 away from 420, 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.

On to step 13:
98 goes into 280 2 times with a remainder of 84.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3520.2857142
Deduct 196 from 280 and we're left with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 98 fits into 840 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3520.28571428
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 784 from 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3520.28571428 with a balance of 5.6e-08.
