We look at the division of 232898 by 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 232898.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 98, we get 0 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.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
23 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 232 / 98

Going ahead to step 3:
98 goes into 232 2 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 196 from 232, we get 36.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 368 / 98

Moving on to step 4:
The number 98 fits into 368 3 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtracting 294 from 368 leaves us with 74.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 749 / 98

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 749 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 63.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 237.0
If we subtract 686 from 749, we get 63.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 63, then repeat: 638 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
98 goes into 638 6 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2376.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 588 from 638.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
98 goes into 500 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2376.5
Subtracting 490 from 500 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
100 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2376.51
Subtracting 98 from 100 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
20 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2376.51
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 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 10:
The number 98 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2376.5102
If we subtract 196 from 200, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 40 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2376.5102
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 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 12:
When dividing 400 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2376.510204
Subtracting 392 from 400 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 80 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2376.510204
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 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 14:
800 divided by 98 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2376.51020408
If we subtract 784 from 800, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2376.51020408 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
