We're dividing 972504 by 16 
Our goal is to divide 972504 by 16.

Step 1:
16 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 16

On to step 2:
16 can be fit into 97 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 96 from 97, we get 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 16

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 12 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 125 / 16

Step 4:
16 can be fit into 125 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 607.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 112 from 125.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 130 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
16 can be fit into 130 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6078.0
Subtract 128 from 130 to get 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 16

On to step 6:
The number 16 fits into 24 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 60781.0
Subtract 16 from 24 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 80 by 16, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 60781.5
If we subtract 80 from 80, we get 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 8:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60781.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60781.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 60781.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
