We're dividing 988017 by 96 
We want to divide 988017 by 96.

On to step 1:
96 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 96

Going ahead to step 2:
96 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 96 from 98 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 96

Step 3:
If we divide 28 by 96, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 28 and we're left with 28.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 280 / 96

On to step 4:
The number 96 fits into 280 2 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 102.0
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 192 from 280.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 88, then repeat: 881 / 96

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 881 by 96, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1029.0
Subtracting 864 from 881 leaves us with 17.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 96

Going ahead to step 6:
96 can be fit into 177 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10291.0
If we take 96 away from 177, we end up with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
810 divided by 96 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10291.8
If we subtract 768 from 810, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 420 by 96, we get 4 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10291.84
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 384 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 96, we get 3 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10291.843
If we take 288 away from 360, we end up 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 10:
720 divided by 96 is 7 with a remainder of 48.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10291.8437
Subtracting 672 from 720 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
480 divided by 96 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10291.84375
Subtract 480 from 480 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 0 by 96, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10291.84375
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 0 by 96, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10291.84375
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10291.84375 and a remainder of 0.0.
