We're dividing 978171 by 60 
Let's see how many times 60 fits into 978171.

Let's proceed to step 1:
60 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 60

Step 2:
If we divide 97 by 60, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 60 away from 97, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 60

Let's proceed to step 3:
60 goes into 378 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 360 from 378 to get 18.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 181 / 60

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 181 by 60, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163.0
Subtracting 180 from 181 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 60

Moving on to step 5:
The number 60 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1630.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 171 / 60

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 171 by 60, we get 2 with a remainder of 51.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16302.0
Subtract 120 from 171 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 510 by 60, we get 8 with a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16302.8
Subtract 480 from 510 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 60 fits into 300 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16302.85
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 300 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 60 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16302.85
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 60 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16302.85
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16302.85 with a balance of 0.0.
