We divide 709171 by 98
Our goal is to divide 709171 by 98.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 70 / 98

On to step 2:
If we divide 70 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 0 from 70.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 70 and continue: 709 / 98

Advancing to step 3:
98 can be fit into 709 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 686 away from 709, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 231 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 231 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 35.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 72.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 196 from 231.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 357 / 98

On to step 5:
If we divide 357 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 723.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 294 from 357.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 631 / 98

Step 6:
98 can be fit into 631 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7236.0
Deduct 588 from 631 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 430 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7236.4
Subtracting 392 from 430 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 380 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 86.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7236.43
The remainder is 86 after subtracting 294 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
860 divided by 98 is 8 with a remainder of 76.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7236.438
Subtract 784 from 860 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 98 fits into 760 7 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7236.4387
If we subtract 686 from 760, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
98 goes into 740 7 times with a remainder of 54.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7236.43877
Subtracting 686 from 740 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

The final result is 7236.43877 with a remainder of 5.4e-05.
