Let's divide 712042 by 97
We want to divide 712042 by 97.

Step 1:
When dividing 7 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 71 / 97

Advancing to step 2:
97 goes into 71 0 times with a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 71 to get 71.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 71 and continue with: 712 / 97

Step 3:
97 can be fit into 712 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 679 from 712 leaves us with 33.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 330 / 97

Going ahead to step 4:
330 divided by 97 is 3 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 73.0
Subtract 291 from 330 to get 39.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 394 / 97

On to step 5:
394 divided by 97 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 734.0
Deduct 388 from 394 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 62 / 97

On to step 6:
97 goes into 62 0 times with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7340.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 0 from 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
97 goes into 620 6 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7340.6
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 582 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
380 divided by 97 is 3 with a remainder of 89.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7340.63
Subtract 291 from 380 to get 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
890 divided by 97 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7340.639
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 873 from 890.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 97 fits into 170 1 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7340.6391
Subtract 97 from 170 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 97 fits into 730 7 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7340.63917
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 510 by 97, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7340.639175
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 485 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
97 goes into 250 2 times with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7340.6391752
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 194 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 97 fits into 560 5 times, leaving a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7340.63917525
If we take 485 away from 560, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 7340.63917525 and a remainder of 7.5e-08.
