Let's divide 494483 by 97
Our goal is to divide 494483 by 97.

Let's proceed to step 1:
97 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 97

Advancing to step 2:
49 divided by 97 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 494 / 97

On to step 3:
The number 97 fits into 494 5 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 485 from 494, we get 9.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 94 / 97

Step 4:
97 goes into 94 0 times with a remainder of 94.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 0 from 94.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 94, then repeat: 948 / 97

On to step 5:
948 divided by 97 is 9 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 509.0
If we take 873 away from 948, we end up with 75.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 75 and continue with: 753 / 97

Moving on to step 6:
97 can be fit into 753 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5097.0
Subtracting 679 from 753 leaves us with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 740 by 97, we get 7 and a remainder of 61.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5097.7
If we take 679 away from 740, we end up with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 610 by 97, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5097.76
If we take 582 away from 610, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
97 goes into 280 2 times with a remainder of 86.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5097.762
If we subtract 194 from 280, we get 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
97 can be fit into 860 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5097.7628
Subtracting 776 from 860 leaves us with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
97 goes into 840 8 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5097.76288
Deduct 776 from 840 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5097.76288, with a leftover of 6.4e-05.
