We're dividing 244178 by 2 
We want to divide 244178 by 2.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 2, we get 1 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 2

Advancing to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 4 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 4 from 4 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 2

On to step 3:
When dividing 4 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 122.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 2

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 1 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1220.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 2

Step 5:
If we divide 17 by 2, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12208.0
Subtract 16 from 17 to get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 2

Advancing to step 6:
2 goes into 18 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 122089.0
Deduct 18 from 18 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 122089.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 122089.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 122089.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
