Let's divide 542330 by 98
We want to divide 542330 by 98.

Going ahead to step 1:
98 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 98

On to step 2:
The number 98 fits into 54 0 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 54 to get 54.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 542 / 98

Let's proceed to step 3:
98 can be fit into 542 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 490 away from 542, we end up with 52.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 523 / 98

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 98 fits into 523 5 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we take 490 away from 523, we end up with 33.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 333 / 98

On to step 5:
If we divide 333 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 553.0
Deduct 294 from 333 and we're left with 39.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 390 / 98

On to step 6:
The number 98 fits into 390 3 times, leaving a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5533.0
Subtracting 294 from 390 leaves us with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 960 by 98, we get 9 with a remainder of 78.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5533.9
Subtract 882 from 960 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
780 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5533.97
Deduct 686 from 780 and we're left with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Step 9:
98 can be fit into 940 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5533.979
Subtracting 882 from 940 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 580 by 98, we get 5 with a remainder of 90.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5533.9795
Subtracting 490 from 580 leaves us with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Step 11:
98 can be fit into 900 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5533.97959
Subtracting 882 from 900 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
98 goes into 180 1 times with a remainder of 82.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5533.979591
Deduct 98 from 180 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 13:
The number 98 fits into 820 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5533.9795918
Deduct 784 from 820 and we're left 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.

Step 14:
360 divided by 98 is 3 with a remainder of 66.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5533.97959183
Subtract 294 from 360 to 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.

After the division, we end up with 5533.97959183 and a remainder of 6.6e-08.
