We divide 983953 by 98
We want to figure out the number of times 983953 can be divided by 98.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 98 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 98

Going ahead to step 2:
98 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 98 from 98.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 3 / 98

Step 3:
When dividing 3 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 98

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 39 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 39.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100.0
Subtracting 0 from 39 leaves us with 39.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 395 / 98

Going ahead to step 5:
395 divided by 98 is 4 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1004.0
Subtracting 392 from 395 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 33 / 98

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 33 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 33.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10040.0
If we take 0 away from 33, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
98 goes into 330 3 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10040.3
Subtract 294 from 330 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
360 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10040.33
Subtracting 294 from 360 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 10040.33, and the remainder is 0.066.
