We divide 101988 by 33
We're looking to find how many times 33 goes into 101988.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 33 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 10 / 33

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 10 by 33, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 101 / 33

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 101 by 33, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 99 from 101.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 33

Moving on to step 4:
29 divided by 33 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 298 / 33

Going ahead to step 5:
33 goes into 298 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 309.0
Subtracting 297 from 298 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 33

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 33 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3090.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 0 from 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
180 divided by 33 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3090.5
If we take 165 away from 180, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 8:
33 goes into 150 4 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3090.54
If we subtract 132 from 150, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
33 goes into 180 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3090.545
Deduct 165 from 180 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
33 can be fit into 150 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3090.5454
Subtract 132 from 150 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 33, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3090.54545
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 165 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 12:
150 divided by 33 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3090.545454
Subtracting 132 from 150 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
180 divided by 33 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3090.5454545
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 165 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
33 can be fit into 150 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3090.54545454
Deduct 132 from 150 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3090.54545454, with a leftover of 1.8e-08.
