Let's divide 579687 by 97
Our goal is to divide 579687 by 97.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 97 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 97

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 97 fits into 57 0 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 57 after subtracting 0 from 57.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 579 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
The number 97 fits into 579 5 times, leaving a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 485 from 579 leaves us with 94.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 94, then carry on: 946 / 97

Step 4:
97 goes into 946 9 times with a remainder of 73.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we subtract 873 from 946, we get 73.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 73, then carry on: 738 / 97

On to step 5:
97 can be fit into 738 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 597.0
Subtract 679 from 738 to get 59.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 59 and continue with: 597 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 597 6 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5976.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 582 from 597.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 150 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 53.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5976.1
If we subtract 97 from 150, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
97 can be fit into 530 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5976.15
If we subtract 485 from 530, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 9:
97 can be fit into 450 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5976.154
If we subtract 388 from 450, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 620 by 97, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5976.1546
If we subtract 582 from 620, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 380 by 97, we get 3 with a remainder of 89.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5976.15463
Subtract 291 from 380 to get 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
97 can be fit into 890 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5976.154639
Deduct 873 from 890 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
170 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 73.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5976.1546391
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 97 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 97 fits into 730 7 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5976.15463917
Subtract 679 from 730 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5976.15463917, and the remainder is 5.1e-08.
