We're dividing 81376438 by 998 
We want to divide 81376438 by 998.

Let's proceed to step 1:
998 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 998

On to step 2:
The number 998 fits into 81 0 times, leaving a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 81, we get 81.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 81, then repeat: 813 / 998

Advancing to step 3:
998 goes into 813 0 times with a remainder of 813.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 813 to get 813.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 813, then carry on: 8137 / 998

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 8137 by 998, we get 8 with a remainder of 153.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 7984 away from 8137, we end up with 153.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 153 and continue: 1536 / 998

Step 5:
1536 divided by 998 is 1 with a remainder of 538.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we take 998 away from 1536, we end up with 538.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 538 and continue: 5384 / 998

Advancing to step 6:
5384 divided by 998 is 5 with a remainder of 394.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 815.0
Deduct 4990 from 5384 and we're left with 394.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 394, then repeat: 3943 / 998

Moving on to step 7:
998 can be fit into 3943 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 949.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8153.0
If we subtract 2994 from 3943, we get 949.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 949, then repeat: 9498 / 998

On to step 8:
998 can be fit into 9498 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 516.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 81539.0
Subtract 8982 from 9498 to get 516.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
5160 divided by 998 is 5 with a remainder of 170.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81539.5
If we subtract 4990 from 5160, we get 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
998 can be fit into 1700 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 702.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81539.51
Subtracting 998 from 1700 leaves us with 702.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7020, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
7020 divided by 998 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 81539.517
Subtract 6986 from 7020 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 340 by 998, we get 0 and a remainder of 340.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81539.517
If we subtract 0 from 340, we get 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
998 goes into 3400 3 times with a remainder of 406.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 81539.51703
If we subtract 2994 from 3400, we get 406.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4060, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 4060 by 998, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81539.517034
Deduct 3992 from 4060 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
680 divided by 998 is 0 with a remainder of 680.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81539.517034
The remainder is 680 after subtracting 0 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

Step 16:
998 goes into 6800 6 times with a remainder of 812.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 81539.51703406
The remainder is 812 after subtracting 5988 from 6800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 81539.51703406 with a balance of 8.12e-07.
