We look at the division of 973517 by 55 
We're looking to find how many times 55 goes into 973517.

Let's proceed to step 1:
55 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 55

On to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 55 from 97, we get 42.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 423 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
55 can be fit into 423 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 385 away from 423, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 385 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 385 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 177.0
Subtracting 385 from 385 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 55

On to step 5:
The number 55 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1770.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 55

Going ahead to step 6:
55 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17700.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 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 7:
When dividing 170 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17700.3
Deduct 165 from 170 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 50 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17700.3
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17700.309
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 50 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17700.309
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 17700.30909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 50 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17700.30909
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 13:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17700.3090909
Subtracting 495 from 500 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 14:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17700.3090909
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17700.3090909 with a remaining 5e-08.
