9887404 divided by 498 
We want to figure out the number of times 9887404 can be divided by 498.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 498, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 498

Step 2:
498 goes into 98 0 times with a remainder of 98.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 98 and we're left with 98.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 988 / 498

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 988 by 498, we get 1 and a remainder of 490.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 498 away from 988, we end up with 490.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 490 and continue with: 4907 / 498

Let's proceed to step 4:
498 can be fit into 4907 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 425.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we take 4482 away from 4907, we end up with 425.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 425, then carry on: 4254 / 498

On to step 5:
4254 divided by 498 is 8 with a remainder of 270.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 198.0
Subtracting 3984 from 4254 leaves us with 270.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 270, then repeat: 2700 / 498

Moving on to step 6:
The number 498 fits into 2700 5 times, leaving a remainder of 210.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1985.0
Subtracting 2490 from 2700 leaves us with 210.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 210, then repeat: 2104 / 498

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 2104 by 498, we get 4 with a remainder of 112.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19854.0
If we take 1992 away from 2104, we end up with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 1120 by 498, we get 2 with a remainder of 124.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19854.2
If we take 996 away from 1120, we end up with 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 498 fits into 1240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 244.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19854.22
If we subtract 996 from 1240, we get 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Our division results in 19854.22 with a remaining 0.244.
