Let's divide 385261 by 98
We want to divide 385261 by 98.

Moving on to step 1:
98 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 98

Step 2:
98 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 385 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
98 can be fit into 385 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 91.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 294 from 385 to get 91.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 91, then carry on: 912 / 98

Moving on to step 4:
912 divided by 98 is 9 with a remainder of 30.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we take 882 away from 912, we end up with 30.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 306 / 98

Advancing to step 5:
The number 98 fits into 306 3 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 393.0
If we subtract 294 from 306, we get 12.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 121 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
98 can be fit into 121 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3931.0
If we subtract 98 from 121, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 98, we get 2 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3931.2
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 196 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 340 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3931.23
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 294 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
98 can be fit into 460 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3931.234
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 392 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
98 can be fit into 680 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 92.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3931.2346
Subtracting 588 from 680 leaves us with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 920 by 98, we get 9 with a remainder of 38.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3931.23469
Subtracting 882 from 920 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 98 fits into 380 3 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3931.234693
Subtract 294 from 380 to get 86.
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 13:
When dividing 860 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3931.2346938
If we subtract 784 from 860, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 98 fits into 760 7 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3931.23469387
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.

Our division results in 3931.23469387 with a remaining 7.4e-08.
