We divide 153213 by 988
We're looking to find how many times 988 goes into 153213.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 988, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 988

Moving on to step 2:
The number 988 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 15 leaves us with 15.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 153 / 988

Let's proceed to step 3:
153 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 153.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 153 and we're left with 153.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 153 and repeat the process: 1532 / 988

Step 4:
1532 divided by 988 is 1 with a remainder of 544.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 988 from 1532 to get 544.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 544 and continue: 5441 / 988

Advancing to step 5:
5441 divided by 988 is 5 with a remainder of 501.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 4940 away from 5441, we end up with 501.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 501, then carry on: 5013 / 988

Moving on to step 6:
The number 988 fits into 5013 5 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we subtract 4940 from 5013, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 730 by 988, we get 0 and a remainder of 730.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 155.0
The remainder is 730 after subtracting 0 from 730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 988 fits into 7300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 384.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 155.07
Deduct 6916 from 7300 and we're left with 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
3840 divided by 988 is 3 with a remainder of 876.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 155.073
If we take 2964 away from 3840, we end up with 876.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 988 fits into 8760 8 times, leaving a remainder of 856.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 155.0738
Subtracting 7904 from 8760 leaves us with 856.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 8560 by 988, we get 8 and a remainder of 656.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155.07388
Subtract 7904 from 8560 to get 656.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6560, and continue the process.

The final result is 155.07388 with a remainder of 0.000656.
