Let's divide 20537478 by 998
Our goal is to divide 20537478 by 998.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 998 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 998

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 20 by 998, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 205 / 998

Going ahead to step 3:
998 goes into 205 0 times with a remainder of 205.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 205, we get 205.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 205, then carry on: 2053 / 998

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 2053 by 998, we get 2 with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1996 from 2053 to get 57.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 57 and repeat the process: 577 / 998

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 577 by 998, we get 0 and a remainder of 577.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 577 after subtracting 0 from 577.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 577, then repeat: 5774 / 998

Moving on to step 6:
5774 divided by 998 is 5 with a remainder of 784.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 205.0
Subtract 4990 from 5774 to get 784.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 784 and continue with: 7847 / 998

Step 7:
If we divide 7847 by 998, we get 7 and a remainder of 861.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2057.0
The remainder is 861 after subtracting 6986 from 7847.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 861, then repeat: 8618 / 998

Going ahead to step 8:
998 can be fit into 8618 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 634.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20578.0
If we subtract 7984 from 8618, we get 634.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 6340 by 998, we get 6 with a remainder of 352.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20578.6
If we take 5988 away from 6340, we end up with 352.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 3520 by 998, we get 3 and a remainder of 526.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20578.63
Subtract 2994 from 3520 to get 526.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5260, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 5260 by 998, we get 5 and a remainder of 270.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20578.635
Subtracting 4990 from 5260 leaves us with 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
998 goes into 2700 2 times with a remainder of 704.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20578.6352
Subtracting 1996 from 2700 leaves us with 704.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 998 fits into 7040 7 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20578.63527
If we subtract 6986 from 7040, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
998 goes into 540 0 times with a remainder of 540.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20578.63527
Subtract 0 from 540 to get 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5400, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
998 goes into 5400 5 times with a remainder of 410.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 20578.6352705
Subtract 4990 from 5400 to get 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
998 goes into 4100 4 times with a remainder of 108.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20578.63527054
Subtracting 3992 from 4100 leaves us with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 20578.63527054 with a balance of 1.08e-07.
