731469 ÷ 97 
We want to figure out the number of times 731469 can be divided by 97.

Step 1:
The number 97 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 97

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 73 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 73, we end up with 73.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 731 / 97

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 731 by 97, we get 7 and a remainder of 52.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 679 from 731 and we're left with 52.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 524 / 97

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 524 by 97, we get 5 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 75.0
Subtracting 485 from 524 leaves us with 39.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 396 / 97

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 396 by 97, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 754.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 388 from 396.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 89 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
97 goes into 89 0 times with a remainder of 89.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7540.0
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 0 from 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 890 by 97, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7540.9
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 8:
97 goes into 170 1 times with a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7540.91
If we subtract 97 from 170, we get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 730 by 97, we get 7 with a remainder of 51.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7540.917
Subtracting 679 from 730 leaves us with 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 10:
When dividing 510 by 97, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7540.9175
If we subtract 485 from 510, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
97 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7540.91752
Subtract 194 from 250 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 97 fits into 560 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7540.917525
Subtracting 485 from 560 leaves us 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 13:
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: 7540.9175257
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 679 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 97 fits into 710 7 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7540.91752577
If we subtract 679 from 710, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7540.91752577 and a remainder of 3.1e-08.
