399872 divided by 97 
We want to divide 399872 by 97.

On to step 1:
97 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 97

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 39 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 39 to get 39.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 399 / 97

Going ahead to step 3:
97 can be fit into 399 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 388 from 399 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 118 / 97

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 118 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 97 from 118, we get 21.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 217 / 97

Advancing to step 5:
97 can be fit into 217 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 412.0
If we take 194 away from 217, we end up with 23.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 232 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 232 2 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4122.0
If we subtract 194 from 232, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 97 fits into 380 3 times, leaving a remainder of 89.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4122.3
Deduct 291 from 380 and we're left with 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

Step 8:
97 goes into 890 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4122.39
Subtracting 873 from 890 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 170 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 73.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4122.391
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 730 by 97, we get 7 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4122.3917
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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 97 fits into 510 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4122.39175
Subtracting 485 from 510 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 97 fits into 250 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4122.391752
If we subtract 194 from 250, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
97 goes into 560 5 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4122.3917525
Deduct 485 from 560 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
97 can be fit into 750 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4122.39175257
If we subtract 679 from 750, we get 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4122.39175257, with a leftover of 7.1e-08.
