Let's divide 501704 by 97
Let's see how many times 97 fits into 501704.

Step 1:
97 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 50 / 97

On to step 2:
The number 97 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 501 / 97

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 501 by 97, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 485 from 501, we get 16.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 167 / 97

Advancing to step 4:
97 goes into 167 1 times with a remainder of 70.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Deduct 97 from 167 and we're left with 70.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 700 / 97

Let's proceed to step 5:
97 goes into 700 7 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 517.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 679 from 700.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 214 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 214 by 97, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5172.0
Deduct 194 from 214 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
97 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5172.2
If we subtract 194 from 200, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
97 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5172.2
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 600 by 97, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5172.206
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 582 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 180 by 97, we get 1 with a remainder of 83.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5172.2061
If we take 97 away from 180, we end up with 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
830 divided by 97 is 8 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5172.20618
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 776 from 830.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 540 by 97, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5172.206185
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 485 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
550 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5172.2061855
The remainder is 65 after subtracting 485 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5172.2061855 with a remaining 6.5e-07.
