We look at the division of 310541 by 97 
Our goal is to divide 310541 by 97.

Step 1:
3 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 97

Advancing to step 2:
The number 97 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 310 / 97

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 310 by 97, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 291 from 310 leaves us with 19.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 195 / 97

On to step 4:
When dividing 195 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we take 194 away from 195, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 97

On to step 5:
14 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 320.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 141 / 97

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 141 1 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3201.0
Subtract 97 from 141 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 7:
440 divided by 97 is 4 with a remainder of 52.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3201.4
Deduct 388 from 440 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 97 fits into 520 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3201.45
If we take 485 away from 520, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 350 by 97, we get 3 with a remainder of 59.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3201.453
Subtract 291 from 350 to get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 590 by 97, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3201.4536
Subtracting 582 from 590 leaves us 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 11:
The number 97 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3201.4536
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 800 by 97, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3201.453608
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 776 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 13:
97 goes into 240 2 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3201.4536082
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 194 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 14:
460 divided by 97 is 4 with a remainder of 72.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3201.45360824
Subtract 388 from 460 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3201.45360824 with a balance of 7.2e-08.
