We look at the division of 899487 by 98 
We want to divide 899487 by 98.

Let's proceed to step 1:
98 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 89 / 98

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 89 by 98, we get 0 and a remainder of 89.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 0 from 89.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 89, then carry on: 899 / 98

Moving on to step 3:
98 goes into 899 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 882 from 899 and we're left with 17.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 174 / 98

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 98 fits into 174 1 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 91.0
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 98 from 174.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 76 and continue with: 768 / 98

Going ahead to step 5:
768 divided by 98 is 7 with a remainder of 82.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 917.0
If we take 686 away from 768, we end up with 82.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 82 and continue: 827 / 98

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 827 by 98, we get 8 with a remainder of 43.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9178.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 784 from 827.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
98 goes into 430 4 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9178.4
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 392 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 380 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9178.43
If we subtract 294 from 380, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 98 fits into 860 8 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9178.438
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.

Moving on to step 10:
98 goes into 760 7 times with a remainder of 74.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9178.4387
If we subtract 686 from 760, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 740 by 98, we get 7 with a remainder of 54.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9178.43877
Subtract 686 from 740 to 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 9178.43877 with a balance of 5.4e-05.
