12846 divided by 71 
We want to figure out the number of times 12846 can be divided by 71.

On to step 1:
71 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 71

Step 2:
When dividing 12 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 128 / 71

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 71 fits into 128 1 times, leaving a remainder of 57.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 71 from 128 leaves us with 57.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 574 / 71

Step 4:
When dividing 574 by 71, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 568 from 574 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 66 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
71 goes into 66 0 times with a remainder of 66.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 180.0
If we subtract 0 from 66, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 660 by 71, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 180.9
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 639 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 71 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 180.92
Subtract 142 from 210 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
680 divided by 71 is 9 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 180.929
If we take 639 away from 680, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 410 by 71, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 180.9295
Deduct 355 from 410 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 71 fits into 550 7 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 180.92957
Subtract 497 from 550 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 530 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 180.929577
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 497 from 530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 180.929577 and a remainder of 3.3e-06.
