280383 ÷ 97 
Our goal is to divide 280383 by 97.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 97 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 97

Going ahead to step 2:
97 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 28, we end up with 28.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 280 / 97

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 280 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 86.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 194 from 280 and we're left with 86.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 863 / 97

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 863 by 97, we get 8 with a remainder of 87.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 28.0
The remainder is 87 after subtracting 776 from 863.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 87, then repeat: 878 / 97

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 878 by 97, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 289.0
If we take 873 away from 878, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 53 / 97

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 53 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 53.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2890.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 0 from 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 97 fits into 530 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2890.5
If we subtract 485 from 530, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
450 divided by 97 is 4 with a remainder of 62.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2890.54
Deduct 388 from 450 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 620 by 97, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2890.546
Subtract 582 from 620 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
97 goes into 380 3 times with a remainder of 89.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2890.5463
If we subtract 291 from 380, we get 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 97 fits into 890 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2890.54639
If we subtract 873 from 890, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
170 divided by 97 is 1 with a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2890.546391
Subtracting 97 from 170 leaves us with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 730 by 97, we get 7 and a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2890.5463917
Subtract 679 from 730 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
510 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2890.54639175
Subtract 485 from 510 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2890.54639175 with a balance of 2.5e-08.
