309959 ÷ 97 
We want to figure out the number of times 309959 can be divided by 97.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 97

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 30 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 309 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 309 by 97, we get 3 with a remainder of 18.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 291 from 309 and we're left with 18.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 189 / 97

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 189 by 97, we get 1 and a remainder of 92.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 97 from 189, we get 92.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 92, then repeat: 925 / 97

Let's proceed to step 5:
97 goes into 925 9 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319.0
If we subtract 873 from 925, we get 52.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 529 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
97 goes into 529 5 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3195.0
If we subtract 485 from 529, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
97 can be fit into 440 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3195.4
Subtract 388 from 440 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
97 goes into 520 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3195.45
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 485 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
350 divided by 97 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3195.453
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 291 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 97 fits into 590 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3195.4536
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 582 from 590.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
80 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3195.4536
Subtracting 0 from 80 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
97 goes into 800 8 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3195.453608
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 776 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
240 divided by 97 is 2 with a remainder of 46.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3195.4536082
If we take 194 away from 240, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 460 by 97, we get 4 with a remainder of 72.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3195.45360824
If we subtract 388 from 460, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3195.45360824, with a leftover of 7.2e-08.
