Let's divide 16497673 by 278
We want to divide 16497673 by 278.

Let's proceed to step 1:
278 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 278

On to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 278, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 278

On to step 3:
The number 278 fits into 164 0 times, leaving a remainder of 164.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 164 and we're left with 164.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 164, then carry on: 1649 / 278

Moving on to step 4:
The number 278 fits into 1649 5 times, leaving a remainder of 259.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 1390 from 1649, we get 259.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 259 and continue with: 2597 / 278

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 2597 by 278, we get 9 with a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtract 2502 from 2597 to get 95.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 95 and continue: 956 / 278

Going ahead to step 6:
278 goes into 956 3 times with a remainder of 122.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 593.0
Subtracting 834 from 956 leaves us with 122.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 122 and continue with: 1227 / 278

Step 7:
The number 278 fits into 1227 4 times, leaving a remainder of 115.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5934.0
If we take 1112 away from 1227, we end up with 115.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 115, then repeat: 1153 / 278

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 1153 by 278, we get 4 and a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59344.0
Subtracting 1112 from 1153 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
278 goes into 410 1 times with a remainder of 132.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59344.1
Deduct 278 from 410 and we're left with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 1320 by 278, we get 4 with a remainder of 208.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59344.14
The remainder is 208 after subtracting 1112 from 1320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 2080 by 278, we get 7 with a remainder of 134.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59344.147
Subtract 1946 from 2080 to get 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
278 goes into 1340 4 times with a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 59344.1474
The remainder is 228 after subtracting 1112 from 1340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
278 goes into 2280 8 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59344.14748
If we subtract 2224 from 2280, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
560 divided by 278 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 59344.147482
If we subtract 556 from 560, we 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.

On to step 15:
278 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59344.147482
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 16:
278 can be fit into 400 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 122.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59344.14748201
The remainder is 122 after subtracting 278 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 59344.14748201, with a leftover of 1.22e-07.
