Let's divide 21504738 by 498
Let's see how many times 498 fits into 21504738.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 498, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 498

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 21 by 498, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 215 / 498

On to step 3:
The number 498 fits into 215 0 times, leaving a remainder of 215.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 215, we get 215.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 215, then carry on: 2150 / 498

On to step 4:
2150 divided by 498 is 4 with a remainder of 158.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 1992 from 2150 and we're left with 158.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 158 and continue: 1584 / 498

Advancing to step 5:
1584 divided by 498 is 3 with a remainder of 90.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43.0
Deduct 1494 from 1584 and we're left with 90.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 90 and continue: 907 / 498

On to step 6:
907 divided by 498 is 1 with a remainder of 409.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 431.0
Subtracting 498 from 907 leaves us with 409.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 409 and continue with: 4093 / 498

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 4093 by 498, we get 8 and a remainder of 109.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4318.0
Deduct 3984 from 4093 and we're left with 109.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 109, then carry on: 1098 / 498

On to step 8:
1098 divided by 498 is 2 with a remainder of 102.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43182.0
The remainder is 102 after subtracting 996 from 1098.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 498 fits into 1020 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43182.2
Subtracting 996 from 1020 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
498 can be fit into 240 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 240.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 43182.2
Subtracting 0 from 240 leaves us with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 2400 by 498, we get 4 and a remainder of 408.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43182.204
Deduct 1992 from 2400 and we're left with 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
4080 divided by 498 is 8 with a remainder of 96.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43182.2048
If we take 3984 away from 4080, we end up with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
498 can be fit into 960 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 462.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43182.20481
Deduct 498 from 960 and we're left with 462.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 4620 by 498, we get 9 with a remainder of 138.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 43182.204819
Deduct 4482 from 4620 and we're left with 138.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
When dividing 1380 by 498, we get 2 with a remainder of 384.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43182.2048192
Subtracting 996 from 1380 leaves us with 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Step 16:
The number 498 fits into 3840 7 times, leaving a remainder of 354.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43182.20481927
Subtract 3486 from 3840 to get 354.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 43182.20481927 with a balance of 3.54e-07.
