We divide 503731 by 98
Our goal is to divide 503731 by 98.

On to step 1:
98 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 98

Advancing to step 2:
98 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 503 / 98

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 503 by 98, we get 5 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 490 from 503, we get 13.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 137 / 98

Step 4:
The number 98 fits into 137 1 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtracting 98 from 137 leaves us with 39.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 393 / 98

Let's proceed to step 5:
98 goes into 393 4 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 514.0
If we subtract 392 from 393, we get 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
98 can be fit into 11 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5140.0
Deduct 0 from 11 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
98 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5140.1
If we take 98 away from 110, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5140.11
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.

Our division results in 5140.11 with a remaining 0.022.
