We divide 3028724 by 172
We're looking to find how many times 172 goes into 3028724.

Going ahead to step 1:
3 divided by 172 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 30 / 172

On to step 2:
If we divide 30 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 302 / 172

On to step 3:
When dividing 302 by 172, we get 1 with a remainder of 130.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 172 from 302 and we're left with 130.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 130, then repeat: 1308 / 172

Moving on to step 4:
172 can be fit into 1308 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 104.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 1204 away from 1308, we end up with 104.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 104, then repeat: 1047 / 172

Advancing to step 5:
172 goes into 1047 6 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtracting 1032 from 1047 leaves us with 15.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 152 / 172

Moving on to step 6:
172 can be fit into 152 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 152.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1760.0
Subtracting 0 from 152 leaves us with 152.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 152 and continue: 1524 / 172

Step 7:
The number 172 fits into 1524 8 times, leaving a remainder of 148.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17608.0
Deduct 1376 from 1524 and we're left with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 1480 by 172, we get 8 and a remainder of 104.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17608.8
Subtract 1376 from 1480 to get 104.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
1040 divided by 172 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17608.86
If we subtract 1032 from 1040, we 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.

On to step 10:
172 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17608.86
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 800 by 172, we get 4 with a remainder of 112.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17608.8604
If we take 688 away from 800, we end up with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 172 fits into 1120 6 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17608.86046
If we take 1032 away from 1120, we end up with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 880 by 172, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17608.860465
Deduct 860 from 880 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 200 by 172, we get 1 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17608.8604651
Deduct 172 from 200 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 15:
280 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 108.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17608.86046511
If we subtract 172 from 280, we get 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17608.86046511 with a remaining 1.08e-07.
