Let's divide 354986 by 99
We want to divide 354986 by 99.

Let's proceed to step 1:
99 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 35 / 99

Advancing to step 2:
99 goes into 35 0 times with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 35, we get 35.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 354 / 99

On to step 3:
354 divided by 99 is 3 with a remainder of 57.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 297 from 354 leaves us with 57.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 579 / 99

Moving on to step 4:
99 can be fit into 579 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we take 495 away from 579, we end up with 84.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 84, then carry on: 848 / 99

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 848 by 99, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 358.0
If we take 792 away from 848, we end up with 56.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 566 / 99

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 566 by 99, we get 5 and a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3585.0
If we subtract 495 from 566, we get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
710 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3585.7
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 693 from 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
170 divided by 99 is 1 with a remainder of 71.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3585.71
Subtract 99 from 170 to get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
99 goes into 710 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3585.717
Deduct 693 from 710 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
170 divided by 99 is 1 with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3585.7171
If we take 99 away from 170, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 710 by 99, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3585.71717
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 693 from 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 170 by 99, we get 1 and a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3585.717171
If we take 99 away from 170, we end up with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 710 by 99, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3585.7171717
If we subtract 693 from 710, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 99 fits into 170 1 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3585.71717171
Subtracting 99 from 170 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

The final result is 3585.71717171 with a remainder of 7.1e-08.
