We divide 988205 by 4
We want to divide 988205 by 4.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 4, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 8 away from 9, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 4

On to step 2:
4 can be fit into 18 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 16 from 18.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 4

Moving on to step 3:
4 can be fit into 28 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 247.0
If we take 28 away from 28, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 2 / 4

Going ahead to step 4:
4 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2470.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 4

Let's proceed to step 5:
4 can be fit into 20 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 24705.0
Subtract 20 from 20 to get 0.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 5 / 4

On to step 6:
If we divide 5 by 4, we get 1 and a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 247051.0
Deduct 4 from 5 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
4 can be fit into 10 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 247051.2
If we subtract 8 from 10, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 4, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 247051.25
Subtract 20 from 20 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 247051.25
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 10:
4 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 247051.25
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 247051.25 with a remaining 0.0.
