Let's divide 998982 by 24
We're looking to find how many times 24 goes into 998982.

Step 1:
24 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 24

On to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 24, we get 4 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 96 from 99.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 24

Let's proceed to step 3:
24 can be fit into 38 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we take 24 away from 38, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 149 / 24

Moving on to step 4:
24 goes into 149 6 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 416.0
Deduct 144 from 149 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 58 / 24

Going ahead to step 5:
58 divided by 24 is 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4162.0
If we take 48 away from 58, we end up with 10.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 102 / 24

Going ahead to step 6:
24 goes into 102 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41624.0
Deduct 96 from 102 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 60 by 24, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41624.2
Subtract 48 from 60 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 24 fits into 120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41624.25
If we subtract 120 from 120, 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.

Advancing to step 9:
0 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41624.25
Subtract 0 from 0 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.

Moving on to step 10:
24 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41624.25
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.

The final outcome is 41624.25, with a leftover of 0.0.
