We're dividing 998952 by 7 
We're looking to find how many times 7 goes into 998952.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 7, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 7 from 9, we get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 7

Moving on to step 2:
29 divided by 7 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 28 away from 29, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 7

On to step 3:
18 divided by 7 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 142.0
Deduct 14 from 18 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 7

Advancing to step 4:
7 goes into 49 7 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1427.0
Subtract 49 from 49 to get 0.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 5 / 7

Step 5:
When dividing 5 by 7, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14270.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 7

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 7 fits into 52 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 142707.0
Subtracting 49 from 52 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 7:
7 goes into 30 4 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 142707.4
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 20 by 7, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 142707.42
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 14 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 7 fits into 60 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 142707.428
If we subtract 56 from 60, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 7 fits into 40 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142707.4285
Subtract 35 from 40 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
50 divided by 7 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 142707.42857
Subtract 49 from 50 to get 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 12:
7 goes into 10 1 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 142707.428571
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 7 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 30 by 7, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142707.4285714
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 28 from 30.
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 14:
When dividing 20 by 7, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 142707.42857142
Deduct 14 from 20 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 142707.42857142, with a leftover of 6e-09.
