Let's divide 98978356 by 972
We want to figure out the number of times 98978356 can be divided by 972.

Moving on to step 1:
972 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 98 / 972

Advancing to step 2:
972 can be fit into 98 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 98.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 98 to get 98.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 989 / 972

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 989 by 972, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 972 from 989 and we're left with 17.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 972

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 177 by 972, we get 0 with a remainder of 177.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 177, we end up with 177.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 177, then repeat: 1778 / 972

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1778 by 972, we get 1 with a remainder of 806.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 101.0
The remainder is 806 after subtracting 972 from 1778.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 806, then carry on: 8063 / 972

Step 6:
8063 divided by 972 is 8 with a remainder of 287.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1018.0
Deduct 7776 from 8063 and we're left with 287.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 287, then repeat: 2875 / 972

On to step 7:
972 can be fit into 2875 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 931.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10182.0
If we subtract 1944 from 2875, we get 931.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 931, then repeat: 9316 / 972

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 9316 by 972, we get 9 with a remainder of 568.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 101829.0
Subtracting 8748 from 9316 leaves us with 568.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5680, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 972 fits into 5680 5 times, leaving a remainder of 820.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 101829.5
If we take 4860 away from 5680, we end up with 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
8200 divided by 972 is 8 with a remainder of 424.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 101829.58
If we subtract 7776 from 8200, we get 424.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
972 can be fit into 4240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 352.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 101829.584
Subtracting 3888 from 4240 leaves us with 352.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 3520 by 972, we get 3 and a remainder of 604.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 101829.5843
If we subtract 2916 from 3520, we get 604.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 972 fits into 6040 6 times, leaving a remainder of 208.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 101829.58436
Deduct 5832 from 6040 and we're left with 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 2080 by 972, we get 2 and a remainder of 136.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 101829.584362
If we subtract 1944 from 2080, we get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
When dividing 1360 by 972, we get 1 with a remainder of 388.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 101829.5843621
Subtract 972 from 1360 to get 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 3880 by 972, we get 3 and a remainder of 964.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 101829.58436213
Deduct 2916 from 3880 and we're left with 964.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 101829.58436213 and a remainder of 9.64e-07.
