Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 154 and repeat the process: 1545 / 971

Advancing to step 4:
The number 971 fits into 1545 1 times, leaving a remainder of 574.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 971 from 1545, we get 574.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 574, then repeat: 5749 / 971

Let's proceed to step 5:
5749 divided by 971 is 5 with a remainder of 894.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 4855 away from 5749, we end up with 894.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 894, then carry on: 8945 / 971

Advancing to step 6:
The number 971 fits into 8945 9 times, leaving a remainder of 206.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 159.0
Deduct 8739 from 8945 and we're left with 206.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 206 and repeat the process: 2065 / 971

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 2065 by 971, we get 2 with a remainder of 123.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1592.0
Subtracting 1942 from 2065 leaves us with 123.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 123, then repeat: 1238 / 971

Step 8:
If we divide 1238 by 971, we get 1 and a remainder of 267.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15921.0
Subtract 971 from 1238 to get 267.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2670, and continue the process.

Step 9:
971 goes into 2670 2 times with a remainder of 728.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15921.2
Deduct 1942 from 2670 and we're left with 728.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 7280 by 971, we get 7 and a remainder of 483.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15921.27
The remainder is 483 after subtracting 6797 from 7280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4830, and continue the process.

Step 11:
971 goes into 4830 4 times with a remainder of 946.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15921.274
Subtract 3884 from 4830 to get 946.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9460, and continue the process.

Step 12:
971 can be fit into 9460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 721.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 15921.2749
Deduct 8739 from 9460 and we're left with 721.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
7210 divided by 971 is 7 with a remainder of 413.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15921.27497
If we take 6797 away from 7210, we end up with 413.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 4130 by 971, we get 4 and a remainder of 246.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15921.274974
Deduct 3884 from 4130 and we're left with 246.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Step 15:
2460 divided by 971 is 2 with a remainder of 518.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15921.2749742
Subtracting 1942 from 2460 leaves us with 518.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
971 can be fit into 5180 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 325.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15921.27497425
Subtracting 4855 from 5180 leaves us with 325.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3250, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15921.27497425 with a balance of 3.25e-07.
