We're dividing 117897 by 98 
We want to divide 117897 by 98.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 98 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 98

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 11 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 117 / 98

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 117 by 98, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 98 from 117.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 198 / 98

Let's proceed to step 4:
98 can be fit into 198 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 196 from 198 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 98

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 29 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 120.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 0 from 29.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 297 / 98

Let's proceed to step 6:
297 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1203.0
If we subtract 294 from 297, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 30 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1203.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 98 fits into 300 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1203.03
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 98 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1203.03
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 98 fits into 600 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1203.0306
Subtract 588 from 600 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
98 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1203.03061
Deduct 98 from 120 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 220 by 98, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1203.030612
Subtract 196 from 220 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 98 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1203.0306122
Subtracting 196 from 240 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

The final result is 1203.0306122 with a remainder of 4.4e-07.
