Let's divide 21431107 by 983
We want to figure out the number of times 21431107 can be divided by 983.

Step 1:
983 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 983

Let's proceed to step 2:
21 divided by 983 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 983

Advancing to step 3:
The number 983 fits into 214 0 times, leaving a remainder of 214.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 214, we end up with 214.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 214 and repeat the process: 2143 / 983

Moving on to step 4:
The number 983 fits into 2143 2 times, leaving a remainder of 177.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1966 from 2143, we get 177.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 177, then repeat: 1771 / 983

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 1771 by 983, we get 1 and a remainder of 788.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 983 from 1771 to get 788.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 788, then carry on: 7881 / 983

Let's proceed to step 6:
7881 divided by 983 is 8 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 218.0
Subtracting 7864 from 7881 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 170 / 983

Step 7:
When dividing 170 by 983, we get 0 with a remainder of 170.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2180.0
If we subtract 0 from 170, we get 170.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 170 and continue: 1707 / 983

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 1707 by 983, we get 1 with a remainder of 724.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21801.0
The remainder is 724 after subtracting 983 from 1707.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 983 fits into 7240 7 times, leaving a remainder of 359.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21801.7
If we take 6881 away from 7240, we end up with 359.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3590, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
3590 divided by 983 is 3 with a remainder of 641.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21801.73
If we take 2949 away from 3590, we end up with 641.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6410, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
983 can be fit into 6410 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 512.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21801.736
If we take 5898 away from 6410, we end up with 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
5120 divided by 983 is 5 with a remainder of 205.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21801.7365
If we subtract 4915 from 5120, we get 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
983 goes into 2050 2 times with a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21801.73652
Deduct 1966 from 2050 and we're left with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
840 divided by 983 is 0 with a remainder of 840.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21801.73652
Subtract 0 from 840 to get 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
983 goes into 8400 8 times with a remainder of 536.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21801.7365208
Deduct 7864 from 8400 and we're left with 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
5360 divided by 983 is 5 with a remainder of 445.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 21801.73652085
Deduct 4915 from 5360 and we're left with 445.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4450, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 21801.73652085 with a balance of 4.45e-07.
