We divide 17990977 by 985
We want to divide 17990977 by 985.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 985, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 985

Step 2:
When dividing 17 by 985, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 179 / 985

Advancing to step 3:
985 can be fit into 179 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 179.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 179, we get 179.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 179 and continue: 1799 / 985

Advancing to step 4:
1799 divided by 985 is 1 with a remainder of 814.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 985 away from 1799, we end up with 814.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 814, then carry on: 8140 / 985

Step 5:
When dividing 8140 by 985, we get 8 with a remainder of 260.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 7880 from 8140 leaves us with 260.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 260, then repeat: 2609 / 985

Advancing to step 6:
985 goes into 2609 2 times with a remainder of 639.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 182.0
Subtracting 1970 from 2609 leaves us with 639.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 639 and continue with: 6397 / 985

Moving on to step 7:
985 goes into 6397 6 times with a remainder of 487.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1826.0
If we subtract 5910 from 6397, we get 487.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 487, then carry on: 4877 / 985

On to step 8:
When dividing 4877 by 985, we get 4 with a remainder of 937.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18264.0
Subtract 3940 from 4877 to get 937.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
9370 divided by 985 is 9 with a remainder of 505.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18264.9
Subtract 8865 from 9370 to get 505.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5050, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 985 fits into 5050 5 times, leaving a remainder of 125.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18264.95
The remainder is 125 after subtracting 4925 from 5050.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1250, and continue the process.

Step 11:
985 can be fit into 1250 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 265.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18264.951
If we take 985 away from 1250, we end up with 265.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 2650 by 985, we get 2 and a remainder of 680.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18264.9512
If we subtract 1970 from 2650, we get 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 6800 by 985, we get 6 and a remainder of 890.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18264.95126
The remainder is 890 after subtracting 5910 from 6800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 985 fits into 8900 9 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18264.951269
Deduct 8865 from 8900 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.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 350 by 985, we get 0 and a remainder of 350.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18264.951269
Subtracting 0 from 350 leaves us with 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 3500 by 985, we get 3 and a remainder of 545.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18264.95126903
Deduct 2955 from 3500 and we're left with 545.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5450, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 18264.95126903 and a remainder of 5.45e-07.
