Hi i have a small question we know how to divide numbers using the elementary school Long procedure, suppose mathematica is a small child and i want him to show me his procedure step by step such as this: input: 20839 , 9 output: 1- 2/9 ->0 mod=2 2- 20/9 ->2 mod=2 3- 28/9 ->3 mod=1 4- 13/9 ->1 mod=4 5- 49/9 ->5 mod=4 so the final result will be 2315+(4/9) how to implement this in mathematica jack
