We look at the division of 978550 by 97 
We're looking to find how many times 97 goes into 978550.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 97

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 97 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 97 from 97 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
97 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 97

Advancing to step 4:
97 goes into 85 0 times with a remainder of 85.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 100.0
Deduct 0 from 85 and we're left with 85.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 85 and continue with: 855 / 97

Let's proceed to step 5:
97 can be fit into 855 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1008.0
Deduct 776 from 855 and we're left with 79.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 790 / 97

Let's proceed to step 6:
790 divided by 97 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10088.0
Subtracting 776 from 790 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
140 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10088.1
Deduct 97 from 140 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
97 can be fit into 430 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10088.14
Deduct 388 from 430 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
97 can be fit into 420 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10088.144
Subtract 388 from 420 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10088.144 and a remainder of 0.0032.
