We divide 731197 by 98
Our goal is to divide 731197 by 98.

Step 1:
98 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 73 / 98

On to step 2:
When dividing 73 by 98, we get 0 with a remainder of 73.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 0 from 73.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 731 / 98

On to step 3:
98 can be fit into 731 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 686 from 731 and we're left with 45.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 451 / 98

On to step 4:
When dividing 451 by 98, we get 4 with a remainder of 59.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74.0
Deduct 392 from 451 and we're left with 59.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 599 / 98

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 599 by 98, we get 6 and a remainder of 11.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 746.0
If we subtract 588 from 599, we get 11.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 117 / 98

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 117 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7461.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 98 from 117.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 98 fits into 190 1 times, leaving a remainder of 92.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7461.1
Subtracting 98 from 190 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
The number 98 fits into 920 9 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7461.19
Subtract 882 from 920 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
98 can be fit into 380 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7461.193
Subtracting 294 from 380 leaves us with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 860 by 98, we get 8 and a remainder of 76.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7461.1938
Deduct 784 from 860 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
760 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 74.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7461.19387
Deduct 686 from 760 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
98 can be fit into 740 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7461.193877
If we subtract 686 from 740, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7461.193877 with a balance of 5.4e-06.
