We divide 980401 by 6
We want to divide 980401 by 6.

Moving on to step 1:
6 goes into 9 1 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 6 from 9 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 6

Step 2:
If we divide 38 by 6, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 36 from 38 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 20 / 6

Advancing to step 3:
20 divided by 6 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 163.0
Deduct 18 from 20 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 6

Advancing to step 4:
The number 6 fits into 24 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1634.0
If we subtract 24 from 24, we get 0.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 0 / 6

Advancing to step 5:
0 divided by 6 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16340.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 6

Step 6:
The number 6 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 163400.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up 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:
The number 6 fits into 10 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163400.1
Subtract 6 from 10 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.

On to step 8:
The number 6 fits into 40 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163400.16
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 6 fits into 40 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163400.166
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 163400.166 with a remaining 0.0004.
