8871 ÷ 98 
Let's see how many times 98 fits into 8871.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 98 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
98 goes into 88 0 times with a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 88 leaves us with 88.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 88, then repeat: 887 / 98

On to step 3:
98 goes into 887 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 882 from 887.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 98

Step 4:
The number 98 fits into 51 0 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 90.0
Subtracting 0 from 51 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Step 5:
98 goes into 510 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 90.5
Deduct 490 from 510 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
200 divided by 98 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 90.52
If we take 196 away from 200, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
98 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 90.52
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 400 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 90.5204
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
98 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 90.5204
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
800 divided by 98 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 90.520408
Deduct 784 from 800 and we're left 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.

On to step 11:
160 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 62.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 90.5204081
Subtracting 98 from 160 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
98 goes into 620 6 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 90.52040816
If we subtract 588 from 620, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 90.52040816 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
