We look at the division of 289851 by 99 
Our goal is to divide 289851 by 99.

Let's proceed to step 1:
99 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 99

Step 2:
99 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 289 / 99

On to step 3:
99 goes into 289 2 times with a remainder of 91.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 91 after subtracting 198 from 289.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 91 and continue: 918 / 99

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 918 by 99, we get 9 with a remainder of 27.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 891 from 918 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 275 / 99

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 275 by 99, we get 2 and a remainder of 77.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 292.0
If we subtract 198 from 275, we get 77.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 77, then repeat: 771 / 99

Advancing to step 6:
771 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2927.0
Subtract 693 from 771 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
99 goes into 780 7 times with a remainder of 87.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2927.7
If we take 693 away from 780, we end up with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
870 divided by 99 is 8 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2927.78
The remainder is 78 after subtracting 792 from 870.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 99 fits into 780 7 times, leaving a remainder of 87.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2927.787
If we subtract 693 from 780, we get 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 870 by 99, we get 8 and a remainder of 78.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2927.7878
If we take 792 away from 870, we end up with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
780 divided by 99 is 7 with a remainder of 87.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2927.78787
Deduct 693 from 780 and we're left with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Step 12:
99 goes into 870 8 times with a remainder of 78.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2927.787878
If we take 792 away from 870, we end up with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
99 can be fit into 780 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2927.7878787
Subtracting 693 from 780 leaves us with 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 870 by 99, we get 8 with a remainder of 78.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2927.78787878
Subtracting 792 from 870 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2927.78787878 with a remaining 7.8e-08.
