Let's divide 487101 by 97
Our goal is to divide 487101 by 97.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 97

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 97

Moving on to step 3:
97 can be fit into 487 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 485 from 487 to get 2.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 21 / 97

Advancing to step 4:
The number 97 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 210 / 97

Step 5:
If we divide 210 by 97, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 502.0
Subtract 194 from 210 to get 16.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 161 / 97

Step 6:
161 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 64.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5021.0
Subtract 97 from 161 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
97 goes into 640 6 times with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5021.6
If we take 582 away from 640, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 8:
97 can be fit into 580 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 95.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5021.65
The remainder is 95 after subtracting 485 from 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
97 goes into 950 9 times with a remainder of 77.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5021.659
Subtracting 873 from 950 leaves us with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 770 by 97, we get 7 and a remainder of 91.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5021.6597
If we subtract 679 from 770, we get 91.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 910, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
910 divided by 97 is 9 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5021.65979
If we subtract 873 from 910, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 97 fits into 370 3 times, leaving a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5021.659793
Subtracting 291 from 370 leaves us with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 97 fits into 790 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5021.6597938
Subtracting 776 from 790 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 140 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5021.65979381
Deduct 97 from 140 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5021.65979381 and a remainder of 4.3e-08.
