We're dividing 401855 by 98 
We want to divide 401855 by 98.

Let's proceed to step 1:
98 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
The number 98 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 401 / 98

On to step 3:
The number 98 fits into 401 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 392 from 401 to get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 98

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 98 by 98, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 98 from 98.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 5 / 98

Moving on to step 5:
98 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 410.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 98

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 55 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 55.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4100.0
If we subtract 0 from 55, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
550 divided by 98 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4100.5
If we subtract 490 from 550, 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
98 goes into 600 6 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4100.56
If we take 588 away from 600, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
120 divided by 98 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4100.561
If we subtract 98 from 120, we get 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 10:
220 divided by 98 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4100.5612
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4100.56122
If we take 196 away from 240, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 4100.56122 with a balance of 4.4e-05.
