Let's divide 276728 by 76
We want to divide 276728 by 76.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 76

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 276 / 76

Step 3:
76 goes into 276 3 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 228 away from 276, we end up with 48.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 487 / 76

On to step 4:
76 can be fit into 487 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtract 456 from 487 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 312 / 76

On to step 5:
The number 76 fits into 312 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 364.0
If we take 304 away from 312, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 76

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 88 by 76, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3641.0
Subtracting 76 from 88 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
120 divided by 76 is 1 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3641.1
If we take 76 away from 120, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
440 divided by 76 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3641.15
Deduct 380 from 440 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
76 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3641.157
Subtracting 532 from 600 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 76 fits into 680 8 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3641.1578
If we subtract 608 from 680, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
720 divided by 76 is 9 with a remainder of 36.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3641.15789
Subtract 684 from 720 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 360 by 76, we get 4 and a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3641.157894
Subtract 304 from 360 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
76 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3641.1578947
If we subtract 532 from 560, we get 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 14:
76 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3641.15789473
If we subtract 228 from 280, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final result is 3641.15789473 with a remainder of 5.2e-08.
