We divide 988740 by 84
We want to divide 988740 by 84.

Moving on to step 1:
84 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 84

Going ahead to step 2:
98 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 84 from 98.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 148 / 84

Let's proceed to step 3:
84 goes into 148 1 times with a remainder of 64.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 84 away from 148, we end up with 64.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 64 and continue with: 647 / 84

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 84 fits into 647 7 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 117.0
Subtract 588 from 647 to get 59.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 594 / 84

Step 5:
If we divide 594 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1177.0
Subtract 588 from 594 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 84

On to step 6:
The number 84 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11770.0
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
600 divided by 84 is 7 with a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11770.7
Subtracting 588 from 600 leaves us with 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:
120 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11770.71
If we subtract 84 from 120, we 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.

Moving on to step 9:
360 divided by 84 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11770.714
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 84 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11770.7142
If we take 168 away from 240, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 84 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11770.71428
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 672 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
84 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11770.714285
If we subtract 420 from 480, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
84 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11770.7142857
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 588 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
84 can be fit into 120 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11770.71428571
Deduct 84 from 120 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11770.71428571 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
