We divide 863401 by 98
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 863401.

On to step 1:
8 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 86 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 86 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 86, we end up with 86.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 86, then repeat: 863 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 863 8 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 784 from 863 to get 79.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 79 and continue: 794 / 98

Advancing to step 4:
98 can be fit into 794 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
Deduct 784 from 794 and we're left with 10.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 100 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 100 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 881.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 98 from 100.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 98

Moving on to step 6:
98 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8810.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 210 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8810.2
Subtract 196 from 210 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8810.21
Subtract 98 from 140 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 420 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8810.214
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 392 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 280 by 98, we get 2 and a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8810.2142
Deduct 196 from 280 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 98 fits into 840 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8810.21428
Deduct 784 from 840 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
98 can be fit into 560 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8810.214285
Subtracting 490 from 560 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 700 by 98, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8810.2142857
Subtracting 686 from 700 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 14:
98 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8810.21428571
Subtract 98 from 140 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8810.21428571 with a balance of 4.2e-08.
