We look at the division of 61597494 by 973 
We're looking to find how many times 973 goes into 61597494.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 973 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 61 / 973

Advancing to step 2:
973 goes into 61 0 times with a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 61, we end up with 61.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 61 and repeat the process: 615 / 973

Moving on to step 3:
973 can be fit into 615 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 615.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 615 leaves us with 615.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 615, then repeat: 6159 / 973

Let's proceed to step 4:
973 can be fit into 6159 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 321.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 321 after subtracting 5838 from 6159.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 321, then carry on: 3217 / 973

On to step 5:
When dividing 3217 by 973, we get 3 with a remainder of 298.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we take 2919 away from 3217, we end up with 298.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 298, then repeat: 2984 / 973

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 2984 by 973, we get 3 with a remainder of 65.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 633.0
Subtracting 2919 from 2984 leaves us with 65.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 659 / 973

Moving on to step 7:
973 goes into 659 0 times with a remainder of 659.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6330.0
Subtract 0 from 659 to get 659.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 659, then repeat: 6594 / 973

Step 8:
973 can be fit into 6594 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 756.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63306.0
Subtract 5838 from 6594 to get 756.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 7560 by 973, we get 7 and a remainder of 749.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63306.7
If we take 6811 away from 7560, we end up with 749.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
7490 divided by 973 is 7 with a remainder of 679.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63306.77
Subtracting 6811 from 7490 leaves us with 679.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6790, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 63306.77 and a remainder of 0.679.
