Let's divide 997681 by 43
We want to divide 997681 by 43.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 43

On to step 2:
43 goes into 99 2 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 86 away from 99, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 137 / 43

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 137 by 43, we get 3 and a remainder of 8.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtract 129 from 137 to get 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 43

Step 4:
43 goes into 86 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 232.0
Subtract 86 from 86 to get 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 43

Step 5:
8 divided by 43 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2320.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 43

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 81 by 43, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23201.0
Deduct 43 from 81 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
43 can be fit into 380 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23201.8
If we take 344 away from 380, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
360 divided by 43 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23201.88
If we take 344 away from 360, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 23201.88 with a remainder of 0.016.
