98608340 divided by 429 
Our goal is to divide 98608340 by 429.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 429 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 429

On to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 429, we get 0 and a remainder of 98.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 98, we end up with 98.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 98 and continue with: 986 / 429

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 986 by 429, we get 2 with a remainder of 128.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 128 after subtracting 858 from 986.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 128, then repeat: 1280 / 429

On to step 4:
When dividing 1280 by 429, we get 2 with a remainder of 422.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtract 858 from 1280 to get 422.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 422, then carry on: 4228 / 429

Advancing to step 5:
The number 429 fits into 4228 9 times, leaving a remainder of 367.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 229.0
If we take 3861 away from 4228, we end up with 367.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 367, then repeat: 3673 / 429

Let's proceed to step 6:
429 can be fit into 3673 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 241.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2298.0
The remainder is 241 after subtracting 3432 from 3673.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 241, then repeat: 2414 / 429

On to step 7:
2414 divided by 429 is 5 with a remainder of 269.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22985.0
If we subtract 2145 from 2414, we get 269.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 269, then repeat: 2690 / 429

On to step 8:
429 goes into 2690 6 times with a remainder of 116.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 229856.0
Subtracting 2574 from 2690 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
429 goes into 1160 2 times with a remainder of 302.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 229856.2
The remainder is 302 after subtracting 858 from 1160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3020, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
429 goes into 3020 7 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 229856.27
If we take 3003 away from 3020, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 170 by 429, we get 0 and a remainder of 170.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 229856.27
If we subtract 0 from 170, we get 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 1700 by 429, we get 3 with a remainder of 413.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 229856.2703
The remainder is 413 after subtracting 1287 from 1700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4130, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 4130 by 429, we get 9 with a remainder of 269.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 229856.27039
Deduct 3861 from 4130 and we're left with 269.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 2690 by 429, we get 6 and a remainder of 116.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 229856.270396
If we take 2574 away from 2690, we end up with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
1160 divided by 429 is 2 with a remainder of 302.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 229856.2703962
Subtracting 858 from 1160 leaves us with 302.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3020, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
429 goes into 3020 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 229856.27039627
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 3003 from 3020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Our division results in 229856.27039627 with a remaining 1.7e-08.
