We look at the division of 972184 by 7 
Our goal is to divide 972184 by 7.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 7, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 7 from 9 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 7

Advancing to step 2:
The number 7 fits into 27 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we subtract 21 from 27, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 62 / 7

On to step 3:
If we divide 62 by 7, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 138.0
Subtracting 56 from 62 leaves us with 6.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 61 / 7

On to step 4:
7 goes into 61 8 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1388.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 56 from 61.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 7

On to step 5:
7 goes into 58 8 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 13888.0
Deduct 56 from 58 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 7

Going ahead to step 6:
7 can be fit into 24 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 138883.0
If we take 21 away from 24, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 30 by 7, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 138883.4
If we take 28 away from 30, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
7 can be fit into 20 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 138883.42
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 14 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 7 fits into 60 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 138883.428
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 40 by 7, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 138883.4285
Subtract 35 from 40 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 7 fits into 50 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 138883.42857
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 49 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
7 can be fit into 10 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 138883.428571
If we subtract 7 from 10, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 7 fits into 30 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 138883.4285714
Deduct 28 from 30 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 20 by 7, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 138883.42857142
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 14 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 138883.42857142 with a balance of 6e-09.
