178308 ÷ 43 
We want to figure out the number of times 178308 can be divided by 43.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 43 fits into 1 0 times, leaving 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.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 43

Moving on to step 2:
43 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 43

Advancing to step 3:
43 goes into 178 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 172 from 178 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 63 / 43

Step 4:
63 divided by 43 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41.0
Deduct 43 from 63 and we're left with 20.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 200 / 43

Step 5:
If we divide 200 by 43, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 414.0
Subtracting 172 from 200 leaves us with 28.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 288 / 43

Moving on to step 6:
288 divided by 43 is 6 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4146.0
If we take 258 away from 288, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 300 by 43, we get 6 with a remainder of 42.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4146.6
If we subtract 258 from 300, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 420 by 43, we get 9 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4146.69
If we take 387 away from 420, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 43 fits into 330 7 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4146.697
Subtracting 301 from 330 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 290 by 43, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4146.6976
Subtracting 258 from 290 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 43, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4146.69767
Deduct 301 from 320 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
43 can be fit into 190 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4146.697674
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 172 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
180 divided by 43 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4146.6976744
Deduct 172 from 180 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4146.6976744 with a remaining 8e-08.
