We divide 312179 by 76
We're looking to find how many times 76 goes into 312179.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 76

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 31 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 31 to get 31.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 312 / 76

Step 3:
The number 76 fits into 312 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 304 from 312 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 81 / 76

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 81 by 76, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 76 from 81.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 76

Step 5:
57 divided by 76 is 0 with a remainder of 57.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 410.0
Subtracting 0 from 57 leaves us with 57.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 579 / 76

Step 6:
The number 76 fits into 579 7 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4107.0
If we subtract 532 from 579, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 470 by 76, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4107.6
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 456 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
140 divided by 76 is 1 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4107.61
If we subtract 76 from 140, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 640 by 76, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4107.618
Deduct 608 from 640 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
76 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4107.6184
If we subtract 304 from 320, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 76, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4107.61842
Subtract 152 from 160 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 80 by 76, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4107.618421
Subtracting 76 from 80 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 40 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4107.618421
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 400 by 76, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4107.61842105
Subtracting 380 from 400 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4107.61842105 with a balance of 2e-08.
