Advancing to step 4:
The number 971 fits into 7214 7 times, leaving a remainder of 417.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 6797 from 7214 to get 417.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 417 and continue: 4175 / 971

Moving on to step 5:
The number 971 fits into 4175 4 times, leaving a remainder of 291.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74.0
Deduct 3884 from 4175 and we're left with 291.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 291 and repeat the process: 2918 / 971

On to step 6:
The number 971 fits into 2918 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 743.0
Subtract 2913 from 2918 to get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 971

Step 7:
55 divided by 971 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7430.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 555 / 971

Advancing to step 8:
971 can be fit into 555 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 555.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74300.0
If we subtract 0 from 555, we get 555.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
971 can be fit into 5550 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 695.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74300.5
If we take 4855 away from 5550, we end up with 695.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6950, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 971 fits into 6950 7 times, leaving a remainder of 153.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74300.57
Subtract 6797 from 6950 to get 153.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1530, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 1530 by 971, we get 1 and a remainder of 559.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74300.571
Subtracting 971 from 1530 leaves us with 559.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 5590 by 971, we get 5 with a remainder of 735.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74300.5715
Deduct 4855 from 5590 and we're left with 735.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7350, and continue the process.

Step 13:
971 goes into 7350 7 times with a remainder of 553.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74300.57157
The remainder is 553 after subtracting 6797 from 7350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 5530 by 971, we get 5 and a remainder of 675.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74300.571575
The remainder is 675 after subtracting 4855 from 5530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6750, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 971 fits into 6750 6 times, leaving a remainder of 924.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74300.5715756
Subtract 5826 from 6750 to get 924.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
When dividing 9240 by 971, we get 9 with a remainder of 501.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74300.57157569
Subtract 8739 from 9240 to get 501.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5010, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 74300.57157569, and the remainder is 5.01e-07.
