We're dividing 985246 by 71 
Our goal is to divide 985246 by 71.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 71

On to step 2:
98 divided by 71 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 71 from 98 leaves us with 27.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 275 / 71

Let's proceed to step 3:
71 can be fit into 275 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 213 from 275 leaves us with 62.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 622 / 71

On to step 4:
622 divided by 71 is 8 with a remainder of 54.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 138.0
Subtracting 568 from 622 leaves us with 54.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 544 / 71

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 544 by 71, we get 7 and a remainder of 47.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1387.0
Deduct 497 from 544 and we're left with 47.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 476 / 71

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 476 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13876.0
Subtracting 426 from 476 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
71 goes into 500 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13876.7
Deduct 497 from 500 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 8:
30 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13876.7
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 71 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13876.704
Subtracting 284 from 300 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
71 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13876.7042
Subtract 142 from 160 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 38.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13876.70422
Deduct 142 from 180 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Our division results in 13876.70422 with a remaining 3.8e-05.
