Let's divide 721877 by 98
Our goal is to divide 721877 by 98.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
72 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 72.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 72 and continue: 721 / 98

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 721 7 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 686 from 721 and we're left with 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
358 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
If we take 294 away from 358, we end up with 64.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 64, then carry on: 647 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 647 by 98, we get 6 and a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 736.0
Subtracting 588 from 647 leaves us with 59.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 597 / 98

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 98 fits into 597 6 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7366.0
If we subtract 588 from 597, 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.

On to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 90.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7366.0
Subtract 0 from 90 to 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:
900 divided by 98 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7366.09
Subtracting 882 from 900 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:
98 can be fit into 180 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 82.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7366.091
If we subtract 98 from 180, we get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 98 fits into 820 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7366.0918
If we subtract 784 from 820, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 360 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 66.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7366.09183
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 294 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 98 fits into 660 6 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7366.091836
Subtracting 588 from 660 leaves us with 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:
720 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7366.0918367
Subtract 686 from 720 to 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.

Moving on to step 14:
340 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7366.09183673
Subtracting 294 from 340 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 7366.09183673 and a remainder of 4.6e-08.
