We look at the division of 260983 by 98 
Let's see how many times 98 fits into 260983.

Advancing to step 1:
98 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 26 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 26 to get 26.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 260 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
98 goes into 260 2 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 196 from 260 and we're left with 64.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 64, then repeat: 649 / 98

Moving on to step 4:
98 can be fit into 649 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we take 588 away from 649, we end up with 61.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 61, then repeat: 618 / 98

Moving on to step 5:
98 can be fit into 618 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 266.0
Subtracting 588 from 618 leaves us with 30.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 303 / 98

On to step 6:
98 can be fit into 303 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2663.0
If we subtract 294 from 303, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 98 fits into 90 0 times, leaving a remainder of 90.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2663.0
If we subtract 0 from 90, we get 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 900 by 98, we get 9 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2663.09
Subtract 882 from 900 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
98 goes into 180 1 times with a remainder of 82.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2663.091
Subtracting 98 from 180 leaves us with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 98 fits into 820 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2663.0918
Deduct 784 from 820 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.

On to step 11:
360 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2663.09183
Deduct 294 from 360 and we're left with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
98 can be fit into 660 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2663.091836
If we subtract 588 from 660, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
98 can be fit into 720 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2663.0918367
If we subtract 686 from 720, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 340 by 98, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2663.09183673
Deduct 294 from 340 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2663.09183673, with a leftover of 4.6e-08.
