We divide 18810831 by 996
We want to figure out the number of times 18810831 can be divided by 996.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 996, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 996

On to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 996, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 18 leaves us with 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 996

On to step 3:
188 divided by 996 is 0 with a remainder of 188.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 188 to get 188.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 188 and repeat the process: 1881 / 996

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 1881 by 996, we get 1 and a remainder of 885.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 996 away from 1881, we end up with 885.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 885, then carry on: 8850 / 996

Step 5:
When dividing 8850 by 996, we get 8 with a remainder of 882.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 882 after subtracting 7968 from 8850.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 882, then carry on: 8828 / 996

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 8828 by 996, we get 8 with a remainder of 860.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 188.0
Subtracting 7968 from 8828 leaves us with 860.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 860 and repeat the process: 8603 / 996

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 8603 by 996, we get 8 with a remainder of 635.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1888.0
Subtracting 7968 from 8603 leaves us with 635.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 635, then repeat: 6351 / 996

Moving on to step 8:
996 can be fit into 6351 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 375.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18886.0
If we take 5976 away from 6351, we end up with 375.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 3750 by 996, we get 3 and a remainder of 762.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18886.3
If we take 2988 away from 3750, we end up with 762.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
996 can be fit into 7620 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 648.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18886.37
Subtract 6972 from 7620 to get 648.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
996 can be fit into 6480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 504.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 18886.376
Subtract 5976 from 6480 to get 504.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5040, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
5040 divided by 996 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18886.3765
If we subtract 4980 from 5040, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
996 can be fit into 600 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 600.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18886.3765
If we subtract 0 from 600, we get 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6000, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
996 goes into 6000 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18886.376506
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 5976 from 6000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 240 by 996, we get 0 with a remainder of 240.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18886.376506
Subtracting 0 from 240 leaves us with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 996 fits into 2400 2 times, leaving a remainder of 408.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18886.37650602
Subtract 1992 from 2400 to get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18886.37650602 with a remaining 4.08e-07.
