214605 ÷ 497 
Our goal is to divide 214605 by 497.

On to step 1:
497 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 497

Step 2:
497 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 497

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 214 by 497, we get 0 and a remainder of 214.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 214, we get 214.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 214, then carry on: 2146 / 497

Moving on to step 4:
497 can be fit into 2146 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 158.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 1988 from 2146 leaves us with 158.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 158 and continue: 1580 / 497

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 1580 by 497, we get 3 and a remainder of 89.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43.0
The remainder is 89 after subtracting 1491 from 1580.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 89, then repeat: 895 / 497

Let's proceed to step 6:
895 divided by 497 is 1 with a remainder of 398.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 431.0
Subtract 497 from 895 to get 398.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3980, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
497 can be fit into 3980 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 431.8
Subtract 3976 from 3980 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
497 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 431.8
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 497 fits into 400 0 times, leaving a remainder of 400.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 431.8
Subtracting 0 from 400 leaves us with 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4000, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 431.8 and a remainder of 0.04.
