We look at the division of 3184141 by 172 
We're looking to find how many times 172 goes into 3184141.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 172 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 31 / 172

Moving on to step 2:
172 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 318 / 172

On to step 3:
318 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 146.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 172 from 318 to get 146.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 146, then repeat: 1464 / 172

Going ahead to step 4:
172 can be fit into 1464 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 88.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 1376 from 1464 to get 88.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 88 and continue with: 881 / 172

Moving on to step 5:
172 goes into 881 5 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 185.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 860 from 881.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 214 / 172

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 214 by 172, we get 1 and a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1851.0
Subtract 172 from 214 to get 42.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 421 / 172

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 421 by 172, we get 2 and a remainder of 77.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18512.0
The remainder is 77 after subtracting 344 from 421.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 172 fits into 770 4 times, leaving a remainder of 82.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18512.4
Subtract 688 from 770 to get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 820 by 172, we get 4 with a remainder of 132.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18512.44
If we take 688 away from 820, we end up with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

The final result is 18512.44 with a remainder of 0.132.
