279450 ÷ 97 
Our goal is to divide 279450 by 97.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 97 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 97

Step 2:
97 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 97

Moving on to step 3:
97 goes into 279 2 times with a remainder of 85.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 194 from 279 to get 85.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 85, then carry on: 854 / 97

On to step 4:
When dividing 854 by 97, we get 8 with a remainder of 78.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtract 776 from 854 to get 78.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 78, then repeat: 785 / 97

Step 5:
785 divided by 97 is 8 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 288.0
If we subtract 776 from 785, we get 9.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 90 / 97

On to step 6:
97 goes into 90 0 times with a remainder of 90.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2880.0
The remainder is 90 after subtracting 0 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
900 divided by 97 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2880.9
If we take 873 away from 900, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 270 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 76.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2880.92
Subtract 194 from 270 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 760 by 97, we get 7 and a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2880.927
Subtract 679 from 760 to get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 97 fits into 810 8 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2880.9278
If we take 776 away from 810, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
97 goes into 340 3 times with a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2880.92783
If we take 291 away from 340, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 97 fits into 490 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2880.927835
If we take 485 away from 490, 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.

Step 13:
When dividing 50 by 97, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2880.927835
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us 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 14:
The number 97 fits into 500 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2880.92783505
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 485 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2880.92783505 with a balance of 1.5e-08.
