We divide 98996 by 7
We want to divide 98996 by 7.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 7 fits into 9 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 7 from 9 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 7

Advancing to step 2:
The number 7 fits into 28 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 28 from 28.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 7

Going ahead to step 3:
9 divided by 7 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 141.0
Subtracting 7 from 9 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 7

Let's proceed to step 4:
7 goes into 29 4 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1414.0
If we subtract 28 from 29, we get 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 7

Advancing to step 5:
The number 7 fits into 16 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14142.0
Subtracting 14 from 16 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
7 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14142.2
If we subtract 14 from 20, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
7 goes into 60 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14142.28
Subtracting 56 from 60 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
40 divided by 7 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14142.285
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 35 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 50 by 7, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14142.2857
If we take 49 away from 50, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 10:
7 goes into 10 1 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14142.28571
If we take 7 away from 10, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
30 divided by 7 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14142.285714
If we take 28 away from 30, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
20 divided by 7 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14142.2857142
If we take 14 away from 20, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
7 goes into 60 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14142.28571428
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 14142.28571428 with a remaining 4e-09.
