We're dividing 477442 by 97 
We're looking to find how many times 97 goes into 477442.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 97 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 97

On to step 2:
47 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 477 / 97

Going ahead to step 3:
97 goes into 477 4 times with a remainder of 89.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 388 away from 477, we end up with 89.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 89, then carry on: 894 / 97

Going ahead to step 4:
97 goes into 894 9 times with a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Deduct 873 from 894 and we're left with 21.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 214 / 97

Moving on to step 5:
97 can be fit into 214 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 492.0
If we subtract 194 from 214, we get 20.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 202 / 97

Step 6:
The number 97 fits into 202 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4922.0
Subtracting 194 from 202 leaves us with 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:
If we divide 80 by 97, we get 0 and a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4922.0
Subtract 0 from 80 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 97 fits into 800 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4922.08
Subtract 776 from 800 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4922.082
Subtracting 194 from 240 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
97 goes into 460 4 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4922.0824
Subtracting 388 from 460 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
720 divided by 97 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4922.08247
If we take 679 away from 720, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 410 by 97, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4922.082474
Subtract 388 from 410 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
220 divided by 97 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4922.0824742
Subtracting 194 from 220 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 260 by 97, we get 2 with a remainder of 66.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4922.08247422
If we take 194 away from 260, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4922.08247422, with a leftover of 6.6e-08.
