98977 ÷ 71 
Our goal is to divide 98977 by 71.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 71

Step 2:
71 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 71 from 98 leaves us with 27.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 279 / 71

Moving on to step 3:
279 divided by 71 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 213 from 279.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 66 and continue with: 667 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
71 goes into 667 9 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139.0
If we take 639 away from 667, we end up with 28.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 287 / 71

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 287 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1394.0
Subtract 284 from 287 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
71 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1394.0
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 300 by 71, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1394.04
If we take 284 away from 300, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
160 divided by 71 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1394.042
Subtracting 142 from 160 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 180 2 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1394.0422
If we subtract 142 from 180, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1394.0422, with a leftover of 0.00038.
