We look at the division of 700871 by 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 700871.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 70 / 98

On to step 2:
If we divide 70 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 70, we end up with 70.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 70 and continue with: 700 / 98

Let's proceed to step 3:
98 can be fit into 700 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 686 from 700, we get 14.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 98

On to step 4:
98 goes into 148 1 times with a remainder of 50.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71.0
Deduct 98 from 148 and we're left with 50.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 507 / 98

On to step 5:
98 can be fit into 507 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 715.0
If we subtract 490 from 507, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 171 / 98

Moving on to step 6:
171 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7151.0
If we subtract 98 from 171, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
730 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7151.7
Deduct 686 from 730 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
98 can be fit into 440 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7151.74
Subtract 392 from 440 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
98 goes into 480 4 times with a remainder of 88.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7151.744
Subtract 392 from 480 to get 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

The final result is 7151.744 with a remainder of 0.0088.
