Let's divide 308859 by 98
Our goal is to divide 308859 by 98.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 98 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 30 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
98 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 308 / 98

On to step 3:
If we divide 308 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 14.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 294 from 308.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
98 goes into 148 1 times with a remainder of 50.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 98 from 148, we get 50.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 505 / 98

Step 5:
505 divided by 98 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 315.0
Subtracting 490 from 505 leaves us with 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 98

On to step 6:
159 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3151.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 98 from 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
610 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3151.6
Deduct 588 from 610 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 98 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3151.62
Deduct 196 from 220 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3151.622
Subtracting 196 from 240 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3151.622 and a remainder of 0.0044.
