Let's divide 131996 by 98
We want to divide 131996 by 98.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 13 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
13 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 13.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 13, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 131 / 98

Step 3:
The number 98 fits into 131 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 98 from 131 leaves us with 33.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 339 / 98

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 339 by 98, we get 3 with a remainder of 45.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 294 from 339 leaves us with 45.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 459 / 98

On to step 5:
If we divide 459 by 98, we get 4 and a remainder of 67.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 134.0
Subtracting 392 from 459 leaves us with 67.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 67, then carry on: 676 / 98

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 676 by 98, we get 6 and a remainder of 88.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1346.0
If we take 588 away from 676, we end up with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 880 by 98, we get 8 and a remainder of 96.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1346.8
Deduct 784 from 880 and we're left with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 960 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 78.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1346.89
If we take 882 away from 960, we end up with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
98 goes into 780 7 times with a remainder of 94.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1346.897
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 686 from 780.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 940 by 98, we get 9 and a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1346.8979
If we take 882 away from 940, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
98 goes into 580 5 times with a remainder of 90.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1346.89795
Deduct 490 from 580 and we're left with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
900 divided by 98 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1346.897959
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 180 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 82.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1346.8979591
Deduct 98 from 180 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 14:
98 can be fit into 820 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1346.89795918
Subtract 784 from 820 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 1346.89795918, and the remainder is 3.6e-08.
