We divide 988469 by 7
We're looking to find how many times 7 goes into 988469.

Advancing to step 1:
7 can be fit into 9 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 7 from 9 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 7

Step 2:
If we divide 28 by 7, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 28 away from 28, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 7

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 8 by 7, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141.0
Deduct 7 from 8 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 7

Step 4:
When dividing 14 by 7, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1412.0
Deduct 14 from 14 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 7

Advancing to step 5:
6 divided by 7 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 14120.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 7

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 69 by 7, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141209.0
If we take 63 away from 69, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 7, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 141209.8
Subtract 56 from 60 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
40 divided by 7 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 141209.85
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 35 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
50 divided by 7 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141209.857
Deduct 49 from 50 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 10 by 7, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141209.8571
Subtracting 7 from 10 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 7 fits into 30 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 141209.85714
If we take 28 away from 30, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
7 can be fit into 20 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 141209.857142
Subtract 14 from 20 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
7 can be fit into 60 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141209.8571428
Subtract 56 from 60 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
40 divided by 7 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 141209.85714285
Subtract 35 from 40 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 141209.85714285 with a remaining 5e-09.
