988956 divided by 16 
We're looking to find how many times 16 goes into 988956.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 16 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 16

Moving on to step 2:
16 goes into 98 6 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 96 from 98 to get 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 16

Moving on to step 3:
28 divided by 16 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61.0
Deduct 16 from 28 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 129 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
16 goes into 129 8 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 618.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 128 from 129.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 16

On to step 5:
If we divide 15 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6180.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 156 / 16

Step 6:
The number 16 fits into 156 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61809.0
Subtracting 144 from 156 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
16 can be fit into 120 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61809.7
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 61809.75
If we take 80 away from 80, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 61809.75
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 61809.75
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 61809.75, and the remainder is 0.0.
