We look at the division of 971 by 56 
We want to divide 971 by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 41.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 56 from 97, we get 41.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 411 / 56

Step 3:
56 can be fit into 411 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 392 from 411, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 190 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.3
If we take 168 away from 190, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 220 3 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.33
If we subtract 168 from 220, we 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.

After the division, we end up with 17.33 and a remainder of 0.052.
