We look at the division of 30997855 by 501 
We want to divide 30997855 by 501.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 501, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 30 / 501

Advancing to step 2:
30 divided by 501 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 309 / 501

On to step 3:
501 goes into 309 0 times with a remainder of 309.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 309 after subtracting 0 from 309.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 309 and continue with: 3099 / 501

Advancing to step 4:
3099 divided by 501 is 6 with a remainder of 93.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 3006 away from 3099, we end up with 93.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 93, then repeat: 937 / 501

Advancing to step 5:
501 goes into 937 1 times with a remainder of 436.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 61.0
The remainder is 436 after subtracting 501 from 937.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 436, then repeat: 4368 / 501

Going ahead to step 6:
501 can be fit into 4368 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 360.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 618.0
Subtracting 4008 from 4368 leaves us with 360.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 360 and repeat the process: 3605 / 501

Let's proceed to step 7:
3605 divided by 501 is 7 with a remainder of 98.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6187.0
If we subtract 3507 from 3605, we get 98.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 98 and continue: 985 / 501

Step 8:
501 can be fit into 985 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 484.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 61871.0
Subtracting 501 from 985 leaves us with 484.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 4840 by 501, we get 9 and a remainder of 331.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61871.9
Subtracting 4509 from 4840 leaves us with 331.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
3310 divided by 501 is 6 with a remainder of 304.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 61871.96
The remainder is 304 after subtracting 3006 from 3310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
501 can be fit into 3040 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61871.966
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 3006 from 3040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 61871.966 and a remainder of 0.0034.
