Let's divide 511821 by 97
We want to divide 511821 by 97.

Let's proceed to step 1:
97 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 51 / 97

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 97 fits into 51 0 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 51 leaves us with 51.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 511 / 97

Let's proceed to step 3:
511 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 485 from 511.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 268 / 97

Moving on to step 4:
268 divided by 97 is 2 with a remainder of 74.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 52.0
Deduct 194 from 268 and we're left with 74.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 742 / 97

Step 5:
When dividing 742 by 97, we get 7 with a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 527.0
Subtract 679 from 742 to get 63.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 631 / 97

Step 6:
The number 97 fits into 631 6 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5276.0
If we subtract 582 from 631, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
490 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5276.5
Subtracting 485 from 490 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 97 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5276.5
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 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 9:
When dividing 500 by 97, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5276.505
Deduct 485 from 500 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
150 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 53.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5276.5051
Subtract 97 from 150 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 97 fits into 530 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5276.50515
Subtract 485 from 530 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 450 by 97, we get 4 with a remainder of 62.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5276.505154
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 388 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
97 can be fit into 620 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5276.5051546
If we subtract 582 from 620, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 380 by 97, we get 3 with a remainder of 89.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5276.50515463
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 291 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5276.50515463, and the remainder is 8.9e-08.
