27984971 divided by 988 
We want to figure out the number of times 27984971 can be divided by 988.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 988, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 988

Advancing to step 2:
27 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 988

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 988 fits into 279 0 times, leaving a remainder of 279.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 279 leaves us with 279.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 279 and repeat the process: 2798 / 988

Moving on to step 4:
The number 988 fits into 2798 2 times, leaving a remainder of 822.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 1976 from 2798 and we're left with 822.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 822 and continue with: 8224 / 988

Going ahead to step 5:
988 can be fit into 8224 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 320.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Deduct 7904 from 8224 and we're left with 320.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 320, then repeat: 3209 / 988

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 3209 by 988, we get 3 and a remainder of 245.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 283.0
Subtracting 2964 from 3209 leaves us with 245.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 245, then carry on: 2457 / 988

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 2457 by 988, we get 2 with a remainder of 481.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2832.0
Subtracting 1976 from 2457 leaves us with 481.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 481, then carry on: 4811 / 988

Advancing to step 8:
The number 988 fits into 4811 4 times, leaving a remainder of 859.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28324.0
Deduct 3952 from 4811 and we're left with 859.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8590, and continue the process.

Step 9:
988 can be fit into 8590 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 686.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28324.8
If we take 7904 away from 8590, we end up with 686.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6860, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 6860 by 988, we get 6 and a remainder of 932.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28324.86
The remainder is 932 after subtracting 5928 from 6860.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
988 can be fit into 9320 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 428.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28324.869
If we take 8892 away from 9320, we end up with 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

Step 12:
4280 divided by 988 is 4 with a remainder of 328.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28324.8694
Subtract 3952 from 4280 to get 328.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 3280 by 988, we get 3 and a remainder of 316.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28324.86943
Subtracting 2964 from 3280 leaves us with 316.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 3160 by 988, we get 3 and a remainder of 196.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28324.869433
If we subtract 2964 from 3160, we get 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 28324.869433 with a balance of 1.96e-05.
