We divide 712859 by 97
Our goal is to divide 712859 by 97.

Going ahead to step 1:
7 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 97

Step 2:
The number 97 fits into 71 0 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 0 from 71.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 71, then repeat: 712 / 97

Moving on to step 3:
712 divided by 97 is 7 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 679 from 712 to get 33.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 338 / 97

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 338 by 97, we get 3 and a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
Subtract 291 from 338 to get 47.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 475 / 97

Step 5:
The number 97 fits into 475 4 times, leaving a remainder of 87.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 734.0
Deduct 388 from 475 and we're left with 87.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 87 and repeat the process: 879 / 97

On to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 879 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7349.0
Deduct 873 from 879 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 97 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7349.0
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 600 by 97, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7349.06
If we take 582 away from 600, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 180 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 83.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7349.061
The remainder is 83 after subtracting 97 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 830 by 97, we get 8 and a remainder of 54.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7349.0618
If we subtract 776 from 830, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
540 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7349.06185
Subtract 485 from 540 to get 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 12:
550 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 65.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7349.061855
If we take 485 away from 550, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7349.061855 with a balance of 6.5e-06.
