Let's divide 281724 by 83
We want to figure out the number of times 281724 can be divided by 83.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 83

Step 2:
83 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 281 / 83

Step 3:
If we divide 281 by 83, we get 3 and a remainder of 32.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 249 from 281 and we're left with 32.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 327 / 83

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 327 by 83, we get 3 and a remainder of 78.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtract 249 from 327 to get 78.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 78 and continue: 782 / 83

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 782 by 83, we get 9 and a remainder of 35.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 339.0
If we subtract 747 from 782, we get 35.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 354 / 83

Step 6:
If we divide 354 by 83, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3394.0
Subtracting 332 from 354 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 83, we get 2 and a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3394.2
If we subtract 166 from 220, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 83 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3394.26
Deduct 498 from 540 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 9:
83 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3394.265
Subtracting 415 from 420 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 83 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3394.265
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
500 divided by 83 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3394.26506
If we take 498 away from 500, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
83 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3394.26506
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 200 by 83, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3394.2650602
Subtracting 166 from 200 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 83 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3394.26506024
Subtracting 332 from 340 leaves us 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.

The final outcome is 3394.26506024, with a leftover of 8e-09.
