16850 divided by 97 
We want to divide 16850 by 97.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 97

On to step 2:
97 can be fit into 16 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
The number 97 fits into 168 1 times, leaving a remainder of 71.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 97 away from 168, we end up with 71.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 715 / 97

On to step 4:
715 divided by 97 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 679 from 715 and we're left with 36.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 360 / 97

Advancing to step 5:
97 goes into 360 3 times with a remainder of 69.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 173.0
Subtract 291 from 360 to get 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
690 divided by 97 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 173.7
Subtracting 679 from 690 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
97 goes into 110 1 times with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 173.71
Subtract 97 from 110 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
130 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 173.711
Subtracting 97 from 130 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 173.711 and a remainder of 0.0033.
