We're dividing 601657 by 97 
We want to figure out the number of times 601657 can be divided by 97.

Let's proceed to step 1:
97 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 60 / 97

Step 2:
97 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 60, we get 60.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 601 / 97

Step 3:
601 divided by 97 is 6 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 582 from 601, we get 19.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 196 / 97

Going ahead to step 4:
97 goes into 196 2 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 62.0
Subtract 194 from 196 to get 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 97

Moving on to step 5:
25 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 620.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 257 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 257 2 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6202.0
Subtracting 194 from 257 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
630 divided by 97 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6202.6
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 582 from 630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
480 divided by 97 is 4 with a remainder of 92.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6202.64
If we take 388 away from 480, we end up with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
97 goes into 920 9 times with a remainder of 47.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6202.649
Deduct 873 from 920 and we're left with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 470 by 97, we get 4 with a remainder of 82.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6202.6494
Deduct 388 from 470 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 820 by 97, we get 8 and a remainder of 44.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6202.64948
Deduct 776 from 820 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
440 divided by 97 is 4 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6202.649484
Subtract 388 from 440 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
520 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6202.6494845
Subtract 485 from 520 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
97 goes into 350 3 times with a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6202.64948453
Subtract 291 from 350 to get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6202.64948453 and a remainder of 5.9e-08.
