9603697 ÷ 178 
Let's see how many times 178 fits into 9603697.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 178, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 178

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 96 by 178, we get 0 and a remainder of 96.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 96, we end up with 96.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 96, then repeat: 960 / 178

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 960 by 178, we get 5 with a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 890 from 960 and we're left with 70.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 70, then carry on: 703 / 178

Advancing to step 4:
703 divided by 178 is 3 with a remainder of 169.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53.0
Subtracting 534 from 703 leaves us with 169.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 169 and repeat the process: 1696 / 178

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 1696 by 178, we get 9 and a remainder of 94.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 539.0
If we subtract 1602 from 1696, we get 94.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 94, then carry on: 949 / 178

Step 6:
949 divided by 178 is 5 with a remainder of 59.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5395.0
Subtracting 890 from 949 leaves us with 59.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 59 and continue with: 597 / 178

Let's proceed to step 7:
597 divided by 178 is 3 with a remainder of 63.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53953.0
Subtracting 534 from 597 leaves us with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 630 by 178, we get 3 with a remainder of 96.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 53953.3
Subtracting 534 from 630 leaves us with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 960 by 178, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 53953.35
If we take 890 away from 960, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
178 goes into 700 3 times with a remainder of 166.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53953.353
Deduct 534 from 700 and we're left with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
178 can be fit into 1660 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 53953.3539
Subtract 1602 from 1660 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
178 can be fit into 580 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 53953.35393
Subtract 534 from 580 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 178 fits into 460 2 times, leaving a remainder of 104.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53953.353932
Deduct 356 from 460 and we're left with 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
1040 divided by 178 is 5 with a remainder of 150.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53953.3539325
Deduct 890 from 1040 and we're left with 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 1500 by 178, we get 8 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53953.35393258
If we take 1424 away from 1500, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 53953.35393258, with a leftover of 7.6e-08.
