88697438 ÷ 971 
Let's see how many times 971 fits into 88697438.

Step 1:
The number 971 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 971

Step 2:
When dividing 88 by 971, we get 0 with a remainder of 88.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 88, we end up with 88.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 88, then repeat: 886 / 971

Step 3:
886 divided by 971 is 0 with a remainder of 886.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 886 to get 886.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 886 and continue: 8869 / 971

Step 4:
8869 divided by 971 is 9 with a remainder of 130.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 8739 from 8869 to get 130.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 130, then repeat: 1307 / 971

Advancing to step 5:
971 can be fit into 1307 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 336.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 91.0
Subtract 971 from 1307 to get 336.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 336, then repeat: 3364 / 971

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 3364 by 971, we get 3 and a remainder of 451.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 913.0
Subtracting 2913 from 3364 leaves us with 451.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 451 and continue: 4513 / 971

Going ahead to step 7:
971 goes into 4513 4 times with a remainder of 629.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9134.0
Subtract 3884 from 4513 to get 629.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 629, then repeat: 6298 / 971

Advancing to step 8:
971 can be fit into 6298 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 472.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 91346.0
The remainder is 472 after subtracting 5826 from 6298.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 971 fits into 4720 4 times, leaving a remainder of 836.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 91346.4
Deduct 3884 from 4720 and we're left with 836.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
971 goes into 8360 8 times with a remainder of 592.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 91346.48
Subtract 7768 from 8360 to get 592.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 971 fits into 5920 6 times, leaving a remainder of 94.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 91346.486
Deduct 5826 from 5920 and we're left with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
940 divided by 971 is 0 with a remainder of 940.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 91346.486
Subtracting 0 from 940 leaves us with 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
9400 divided by 971 is 9 with a remainder of 661.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 91346.48609
Subtract 8739 from 9400 to get 661.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 6610 by 971, we get 6 with a remainder of 784.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 91346.486096
Subtract 5826 from 6610 to get 784.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7840, and continue the process.

Step 15:
7840 divided by 971 is 8 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 91346.4860968
Subtracting 7768 from 7840 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
720 divided by 971 is 0 with a remainder of 720.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 91346.4860968
Subtracting 0 from 720 leaves us with 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 91346.4860968 and a remainder of 7.2e-07.
