We're dividing 972991 by 63 
We want to divide 972991 by 63.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 63, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 97 / 63

Step 2:
If we divide 97 by 63, we get 1 and a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 63 from 97 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 342 / 63

Step 3:
63 goes into 342 5 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 315 from 342 to get 27.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 279 / 63

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 279 by 63, we get 4 with a remainder of 27.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 154.0
Subtracting 252 from 279 leaves us with 27.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 63

On to step 5:
63 goes into 279 4 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1544.0
If we subtract 252 from 279, we get 27.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 271 / 63

On to step 6:
63 goes into 271 4 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15444.0
Subtract 252 from 271 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 63 fits into 190 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 15444.3
If we subtract 189 from 190, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 63, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15444.3
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 100 by 63, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15444.301
If we subtract 63 from 100, 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.

On to step 10:
370 divided by 63 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15444.3015
If we take 315 away from 370, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 63 fits into 550 8 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15444.30158
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 504 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
63 goes into 460 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15444.301587
If we subtract 441 from 460, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
63 can be fit into 190 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15444.3015873
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 189 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 63 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15444.3015873
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 15444.3015873, and the remainder is 1e-08.
