We're dividing 309897 by 99 
Let's see how many times 99 fits into 309897.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 30 / 99

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 99 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 309 / 99

Step 3:
When dividing 309 by 99, we get 3 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 297 from 309.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 99

Step 4:
99 goes into 128 1 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 99 from 128 to get 29.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 299 / 99

Advancing to step 5:
The number 99 fits into 299 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 313.0
Subtracting 297 from 299 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 99

On to step 6:
If we divide 27 by 99, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3130.0
Deduct 0 from 27 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
99 can be fit into 270 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3130.2
If we take 198 away from 270, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 99 fits into 720 7 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3130.27
Subtracting 693 from 720 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
270 divided by 99 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3130.272
If we subtract 198 from 270, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
99 goes into 720 7 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3130.2727
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 693 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
270 divided by 99 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3130.27272
Deduct 198 from 270 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
720 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3130.272727
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 693 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 270 by 99, we get 2 and a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3130.2727272
Subtracting 198 from 270 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
720 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3130.27272727
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 693 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3130.27272727 and a remainder of 2.7e-08.
