We're dividing 96977498 by 273 
We want to divide 96977498 by 273.

Moving on to step 1:
273 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 273

Step 2:
96 divided by 273 is 0 with a remainder of 96.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 96 leaves us with 96.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 96, then repeat: 969 / 273

On to step 3:
273 goes into 969 3 times with a remainder of 150.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 819 from 969 to get 150.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 150, then carry on: 1507 / 273

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 1507 by 273, we get 5 and a remainder of 142.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35.0
Deduct 1365 from 1507 and we're left with 142.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 142, then repeat: 1427 / 273

Moving on to step 5:
273 can be fit into 1427 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 355.0
If we take 1365 away from 1427, we end up with 62.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 62 and repeat the process: 624 / 273

Moving on to step 6:
624 divided by 273 is 2 with a remainder of 78.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3552.0
If we subtract 546 from 624, we get 78.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 789 / 273

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 789 by 273, we get 2 with a remainder of 243.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 35522.0
The remainder is 243 after subtracting 546 from 789.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 243, then repeat: 2438 / 273

On to step 8:
When dividing 2438 by 273, we get 8 with a remainder of 254.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 355228.0
Subtracting 2184 from 2438 leaves us with 254.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2540, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
273 can be fit into 2540 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 355228.9
If we subtract 2457 from 2540, we get 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
273 can be fit into 830 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 355228.93
If we subtract 819 from 830, we get 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 11:
If we divide 110 by 273, we get 0 and a remainder of 110.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 355228.93
If we subtract 0 from 110, we get 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
273 can be fit into 1100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 355228.9304
If we take 1092 away from 1100, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
273 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 355228.9304
Deduct 0 from 80 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
273 can be fit into 800 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 254.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 355228.930402
If we take 546 away from 800, we end up with 254.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
273 can be fit into 2540 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 355228.9304029
If we subtract 2457 from 2540, we get 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
273 can be fit into 830 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 355228.93040293
If we take 819 away from 830, we end up 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.

The final result is 355228.93040293 with a remainder of 1.1e-08.
