We look at the division of 290488 by 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 290488.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 29 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 290 / 98

Going ahead to step 3:
290 divided by 98 is 2 with a remainder of 94.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 196 from 290 and we're left with 94.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 94, then carry on: 944 / 98

Going ahead to step 4:
98 can be fit into 944 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 882 from 944 to get 62.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 628 / 98

Step 5:
628 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 296.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 588 from 628.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 408 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
408 divided by 98 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2964.0
Deduct 392 from 408 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 160 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 62.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2964.1
If we subtract 98 from 160, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 620 by 98, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2964.16
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 588 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 320 by 98, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2964.163
Subtract 294 from 320 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 98 fits into 260 2 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2964.1632
Subtracting 196 from 260 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
98 can be fit into 640 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2964.16326
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 588 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
98 goes into 520 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2964.163265
If we subtract 490 from 520, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
98 can be fit into 300 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2964.1632653
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 98 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2964.1632653
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2964.1632653 and a remainder of 6e-08.
