Let's divide 9855540 by 491
Our goal is to divide 9855540 by 491.

Let's proceed to step 1:
491 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 491

Advancing to step 2:
491 goes into 98 0 times with a remainder of 98.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 98 and we're left with 98.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 98 and repeat the process: 985 / 491

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 985 by 491, we get 2 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 982 from 985 to get 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 491

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 35 by 491, we get 0 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Deduct 0 from 35 and we're left with 35.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 355 / 491

On to step 5:
When dividing 355 by 491, we get 0 with a remainder of 355.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 200.0
Deduct 0 from 355 and we're left with 355.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 355, then repeat: 3554 / 491

On to step 6:
491 can be fit into 3554 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 117.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2007.0
Subtract 3437 from 3554 to get 117.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 117, then repeat: 1170 / 491

Let's proceed to step 7:
1170 divided by 491 is 2 with a remainder of 188.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20072.0
If we take 982 away from 1170, we end up with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 1880 by 491, we get 3 and a remainder of 407.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20072.3
Deduct 1473 from 1880 and we're left with 407.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4070, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 4070 by 491, we get 8 with a remainder of 142.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20072.38
Subtract 3928 from 4070 to get 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 491 fits into 1420 2 times, leaving a remainder of 438.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20072.382
Subtract 982 from 1420 to get 438.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4380, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 4380 by 491, we get 8 with a remainder of 452.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20072.3828
If we subtract 3928 from 4380, we get 452.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4520, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 4520 by 491, we get 9 and a remainder of 101.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 20072.38289
If we subtract 4419 from 4520, we get 101.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1010, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
491 goes into 1010 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20072.382892
If we subtract 982 from 1010, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 491 fits into 280 0 times, leaving a remainder of 280.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20072.382892
Subtract 0 from 280 to get 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
2800 divided by 491 is 5 with a remainder of 345.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20072.38289205
If we subtract 2455 from 2800, we get 345.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3450, and continue the process.

Our division results in 20072.38289205 with a remaining 3.45e-07.
