We divide 970821 by 45
Let's see how many times 45 fits into 970821.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 45 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 45

Moving on to step 2:
97 divided by 45 is 2 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 90 from 97 to get 7.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 70 / 45

Let's proceed to step 3:
45 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 45 from 70 and we're left with 25.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 258 / 45

Advancing to step 4:
45 goes into 258 5 times with a remainder of 33.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 215.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 225 from 258.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 332 / 45

Let's proceed to step 5:
45 can be fit into 332 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2157.0
Subtract 315 from 332 to get 17.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 171 / 45

Advancing to step 6:
45 can be fit into 171 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21573.0
Deduct 135 from 171 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
45 can be fit into 360 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 21573.8
If we take 360 away from 360, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
45 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21573.8
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 45, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21573.8
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 21573.8 with a remaining 0.0.
