2386973 divided by 856 
Our goal is to divide 2386973 by 856.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 856, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 856

Moving on to step 2:
856 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 238 / 856

Moving on to step 3:
238 divided by 856 is 0 with a remainder of 238.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 238 to get 238.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 238 and continue: 2386 / 856

Step 4:
856 can be fit into 2386 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 674.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 1712 from 2386 leaves us with 674.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 674 and repeat the process: 6749 / 856

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 6749 by 856, we get 7 with a remainder of 757.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
Deduct 5992 from 6749 and we're left with 757.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 757 and repeat the process: 7577 / 856

Step 6:
The number 856 fits into 7577 8 times, leaving a remainder of 729.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 278.0
Subtracting 6848 from 7577 leaves us with 729.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 729 and continue: 7293 / 856

Moving on to step 7:
The number 856 fits into 7293 8 times, leaving a remainder of 445.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2788.0
The remainder is 445 after subtracting 6848 from 7293.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
4450 divided by 856 is 5 with a remainder of 170.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2788.5
If we subtract 4280 from 4450, we get 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 1700 by 856, we get 1 with a remainder of 844.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2788.51
Subtracting 856 from 1700 leaves us with 844.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 8440 by 856, we get 9 with a remainder of 736.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2788.519
If we subtract 7704 from 8440, we get 736.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 7360 by 856, we get 8 and a remainder of 512.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2788.5198
Deduct 6848 from 7360 and we're left with 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
856 can be fit into 5120 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 840.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2788.51985
If we subtract 4280 from 5120, we get 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 856 fits into 8400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 696.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2788.519859
Deduct 7704 from 8400 and we're left with 696.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 856 fits into 6960 8 times, leaving a remainder of 112.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2788.5198598
Subtract 6848 from 6960 to get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
1120 divided by 856 is 1 with a remainder of 264.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2788.51985981
Deduct 856 from 1120 and we're left with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

The final result is 2788.51985981 with a remainder of 2.64e-07.
