We look at the division of 24746695 by 972 
We want to divide 24746695 by 972.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 972 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 972

Moving on to step 2:
972 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 247 / 972

Advancing to step 3:
247 divided by 972 is 0 with a remainder of 247.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 247, we end up with 247.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 247, then carry on: 2474 / 972

On to step 4:
If we divide 2474 by 972, we get 2 and a remainder of 530.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1944 from 2474 to get 530.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 530, then carry on: 5306 / 972

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 972 fits into 5306 5 times, leaving a remainder of 446.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 446 after subtracting 4860 from 5306.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 446 and continue: 4466 / 972

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 972 fits into 4466 4 times, leaving a remainder of 578.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 254.0
Subtracting 3888 from 4466 leaves us with 578.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 578, then carry on: 5789 / 972

Step 7:
When dividing 5789 by 972, we get 5 with a remainder of 929.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2545.0
Subtracting 4860 from 5789 leaves us with 929.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 929, then repeat: 9295 / 972

Advancing to step 8:
972 goes into 9295 9 times with a remainder of 547.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25459.0
The remainder is 547 after subtracting 8748 from 9295.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 5470 by 972, we get 5 with a remainder of 610.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25459.5
If we take 4860 away from 5470, we end up with 610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 972 fits into 6100 6 times, leaving a remainder of 268.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25459.56
If we take 5832 away from 6100, we end up with 268.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2680, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 972 fits into 2680 2 times, leaving a remainder of 736.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25459.562
The remainder is 736 after subtracting 1944 from 2680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 7360 by 972, we get 7 with a remainder of 556.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25459.5627
Subtracting 6804 from 7360 leaves us with 556.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
972 goes into 5560 5 times with a remainder of 700.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25459.56275
If we subtract 4860 from 5560, we get 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7000, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 972 fits into 7000 7 times, leaving a remainder of 196.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25459.562757
Subtract 6804 from 7000 to get 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
1960 divided by 972 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25459.5627572
Subtracting 1944 from 1960 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 160 by 972, we get 0 and a remainder of 160.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25459.5627572
If we subtract 0 from 160, we get 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 25459.5627572, and the remainder is 1.6e-07.
