We're dividing 208889 by 98 
Our goal is to divide 208889 by 98.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 98 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
98 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 208 / 98

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 208 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 196 from 208 leaves us with 12.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 128 / 98

Step 4:
If we divide 128 by 98, we get 1 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 98 from 128.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 308 / 98

Advancing to step 5:
308 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 14.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 213.0
If we take 294 away from 308, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 149 / 98

Step 6:
If we divide 149 by 98, we get 1 and a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2131.0
Deduct 98 from 149 and we're left with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
98 can be fit into 510 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2131.5
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 490 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2131.52
Subtract 196 from 200 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
98 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2131.52
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2131.5204
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 80 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2131.5204
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 800 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2131.520408
If we take 784 away from 800, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
98 can be fit into 160 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2131.5204081
Subtract 98 from 160 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
98 can be fit into 620 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2131.52040816
Deduct 588 from 620 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2131.52040816 with a balance of 3.2e-08.
