We're dividing 972541 by 6 
We want to divide 972541 by 6.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 6, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 6 from 9 to get 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 6

Let's proceed to step 2:
6 can be fit into 37 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 36 from 37.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 6

Let's proceed to step 3:
6 can be fit into 12 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 162.0
Subtracting 12 from 12 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 5 / 6

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 5 by 6, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1620.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 6

Advancing to step 5:
The number 6 fits into 54 9 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 16209.0
Deduct 54 from 54 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 6

On to step 6:
The number 6 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 162090.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
10 divided by 6 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 162090.1
Subtract 6 from 10 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
40 divided by 6 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 162090.16
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 6, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 162090.166
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 162090.166 with a remainder of 0.0004.
