Let's divide 578245 by 97
We want to figure out the number of times 578245 can be divided by 97.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 57 / 97

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 57 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 57 to get 57.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 57 and continue with: 578 / 97

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 578 by 97, we get 5 with a remainder of 93.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 485 from 578 to get 93.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 93 and repeat the process: 932 / 97

Let's proceed to step 4:
97 can be fit into 932 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 873 from 932 leaves us with 59.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 594 / 97

Step 5:
594 divided by 97 is 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 596.0
Deduct 582 from 594 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 125 / 97

Step 6:
125 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5961.0
Deduct 97 from 125 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 97 fits into 280 2 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5961.2
If we subtract 194 from 280, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 97 fits into 860 8 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5961.28
Subtract 776 from 860 to get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
97 can be fit into 840 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5961.288
If we take 776 away from 840, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5961.288 with a remaining 0.0064.
