We look at the division of 317957 by 71 
Our goal is to divide 317957 by 71.

Moving on to step 1:
71 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 71

Advancing to step 2:
71 goes into 31 0 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 317 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
The number 71 fits into 317 4 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 284 from 317, we get 33.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 339 / 71

On to step 4:
When dividing 339 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 55.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
Subtract 284 from 339 to get 55.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 55, then carry on: 555 / 71

Moving on to step 5:
71 can be fit into 555 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 447.0
If we take 497 away from 555, we end up with 58.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 587 / 71

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 587 by 71, we get 8 and a remainder of 19.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4478.0
If we take 568 away from 587, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
71 goes into 190 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4478.2
If we take 142 away from 190, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 71 fits into 480 6 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4478.26
Subtracting 426 from 480 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 540 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4478.267
Deduct 497 from 540 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 430 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4478.2676
Subtracting 426 from 430 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
71 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4478.2676
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4478.267605
If we take 355 away from 400, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
71 can be fit into 450 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4478.2676056
Subtract 426 from 450 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
240 divided by 71 is 3 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4478.26760563
If we take 213 away from 240, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4478.26760563 with a remaining 2.7e-08.
