We divide 1603859 by 924
We're looking to find how many times 924 goes into 1603859.

Step 1:
1 divided by 924 is 0 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.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 924

On to step 2:
The number 924 fits into 16 0 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 160 / 924

On to step 3:
The number 924 fits into 160 0 times, leaving a remainder of 160.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 160, we get 160.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 160 and continue: 1603 / 924

On to step 4:
1603 divided by 924 is 1 with a remainder of 679.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 924 from 1603 and we're left with 679.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 679 and continue with: 6798 / 924

Step 5:
When dividing 6798 by 924, we get 7 with a remainder of 330.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 6468 from 6798, we get 330.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 330 and repeat the process: 3305 / 924

Step 6:
The number 924 fits into 3305 3 times, leaving a remainder of 533.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 173.0
If we take 2772 away from 3305, we end up with 533.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 533 and repeat the process: 5339 / 924

Moving on to step 7:
5339 divided by 924 is 5 with a remainder of 719.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1735.0
Subtracting 4620 from 5339 leaves us with 719.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 7190 by 924, we get 7 with a remainder of 722.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1735.7
If we take 6468 away from 7190, we end up with 722.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
7220 divided by 924 is 7 with a remainder of 752.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1735.77
Deduct 6468 from 7220 and we're left with 752.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7520, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1735.77 with a balance of 0.752.
