Let's divide 2990462 by 397
We want to divide 2990462 by 397.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 397, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 397

Advancing to step 2:
29 divided by 397 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 0 from 29.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 299 / 397

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 299 by 397, we get 0 and a remainder of 299.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 299, we end up with 299.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 299 and continue: 2990 / 397

On to step 4:
2990 divided by 397 is 7 with a remainder of 211.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 2779 away from 2990, we end up with 211.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 211, then carry on: 2114 / 397

On to step 5:
The number 397 fits into 2114 5 times, leaving a remainder of 129.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 75.0
Deduct 1985 from 2114 and we're left with 129.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 129, then repeat: 1296 / 397

Let's proceed to step 6:
397 goes into 1296 3 times with a remainder of 105.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 753.0
The remainder is 105 after subtracting 1191 from 1296.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 105, then repeat: 1052 / 397

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 1052 by 397, we get 2 with a remainder of 258.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7532.0
If we subtract 794 from 1052, we get 258.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
397 goes into 2580 6 times with a remainder of 198.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7532.6
If we subtract 2382 from 2580, we get 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Step 9:
1980 divided by 397 is 4 with a remainder of 392.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7532.64
Subtract 1588 from 1980 to get 392.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 3920 by 397, we get 9 and a remainder of 347.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7532.649
Subtract 3573 from 3920 to get 347.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
3470 divided by 397 is 8 with a remainder of 294.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7532.6498
The remainder is 294 after subtracting 3176 from 3470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2940, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
397 can be fit into 2940 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 161.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7532.64987
If we subtract 2779 from 2940, we get 161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
397 goes into 1610 4 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7532.649874
If we subtract 1588 from 1610, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
397 goes into 220 0 times with a remainder of 220.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7532.649874
Deduct 0 from 220 and we're left with 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
397 can be fit into 2200 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 215.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7532.64987405
If we subtract 1985 from 2200, we get 215.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2150, and continue the process.

The final result is 7532.64987405 with a remainder of 2.15e-07.
