54680977 ÷ 988 
We're looking to find how many times 988 goes into 54680977.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 988

Advancing to step 2:
988 can be fit into 54 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 546 / 988

Going ahead to step 3:
988 goes into 546 0 times with a remainder of 546.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 546 and we're left with 546.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 546, then repeat: 5468 / 988

Advancing to step 4:
988 can be fit into 5468 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 528.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 4940 from 5468, we get 528.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 528 and continue with: 5280 / 988

Advancing to step 5:
The number 988 fits into 5280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 340.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 4940 away from 5280, we end up with 340.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 340, then repeat: 3409 / 988

Going ahead to step 6:
988 goes into 3409 3 times with a remainder of 445.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 553.0
If we subtract 2964 from 3409, we get 445.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 445 and continue: 4457 / 988

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 988 fits into 4457 4 times, leaving a remainder of 505.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5534.0
The remainder is 505 after subtracting 3952 from 4457.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 505 and continue with: 5057 / 988

Step 8:
988 goes into 5057 5 times with a remainder of 117.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55345.0
If we take 4940 away from 5057, we end up with 117.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 1170 by 988, we get 1 and a remainder of 182.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55345.1
Subtract 988 from 1170 to get 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 1820 by 988, we get 1 and a remainder of 832.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55345.11
Subtract 988 from 1820 to get 832.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 55345.11 with a balance of 0.832.
