We divide 977421 by 98
We want to figure out the number of times 977421 can be divided by 98.

On to step 1:
98 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 98

Let's proceed to step 2:
97 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 97.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 97 after subtracting 0 from 97.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 97 and continue: 977 / 98

Step 3:
When dividing 977 by 98, we get 9 with a remainder of 95.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 882 from 977 to get 95.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 95, then carry on: 954 / 98

Let's proceed to step 4:
98 can be fit into 954 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 99.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 882 from 954.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 72, then repeat: 722 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 98 fits into 722 7 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 997.0
Subtract 686 from 722 to get 36.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 361 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
361 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 67.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9973.0
Subtracting 294 from 361 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 98 fits into 670 6 times, leaving a remainder of 82.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9973.6
Deduct 588 from 670 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
98 goes into 820 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9973.68
Subtracting 784 from 820 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 98 fits into 360 3 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9973.683
If we subtract 294 from 360, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 660 by 98, we get 6 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9973.6836
If we take 588 away from 660, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 720 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 34.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9973.68367
If we subtract 686 from 720, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 98 fits into 340 3 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9973.683673
If we subtract 294 from 340, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 460 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9973.6836734
Subtracting 392 from 460 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
680 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 92.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9973.68367346
If we take 588 away from 680, we end up with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9973.68367346 and a remainder of 9.2e-08.
