We divide 164879 by 97
We want to figure out the number of times 164879 can be divided by 97.

Let's proceed to step 1:
97 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 97

On to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 164 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 67.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 97 from 164 and we're left with 67.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 678 / 97

Step 4:
97 can be fit into 678 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 96.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 582 from 678 leaves us with 96.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 96, then repeat: 967 / 97

Let's proceed to step 5:
97 goes into 967 9 times with a remainder of 94.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 169.0
If we take 873 away from 967, we end up with 94.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 94 and repeat the process: 949 / 97

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 97 fits into 949 9 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1699.0
Subtract 873 from 949 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
97 goes into 760 7 times with a remainder of 81.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1699.7
If we subtract 679 from 760, we get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 810 by 97, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1699.78
Deduct 776 from 810 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
97 goes into 340 3 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1699.783
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 291 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 97 fits into 490 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1699.7835
Subtracting 485 from 490 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 11:
97 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1699.7835
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
500 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1699.783505
Deduct 485 from 500 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 150 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 53.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1699.7835051
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 97 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
97 can be fit into 530 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1699.78350515
Deduct 485 from 530 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 1699.78350515, and the remainder is 4.5e-08.
