229689 ÷ 84 
We're looking to find how many times 84 goes into 229689.

On to step 1:
The number 84 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 84

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 22 by 84, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 229 / 84

On to step 3:
When dividing 229 by 84, we get 2 with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 168 from 229, we get 61.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 61 and continue with: 616 / 84

Advancing to step 4:
616 divided by 84 is 7 with a remainder of 28.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 588 from 616 leaves us with 28.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 288 / 84

Let's proceed to step 5:
288 divided by 84 is 3 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 273.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 252 from 288.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 369 / 84

Step 6:
369 divided by 84 is 4 with a remainder of 33.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2734.0
If we take 336 away from 369, 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.

On to step 7:
When dividing 330 by 84, we get 3 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2734.3
Subtract 252 from 330 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 84 fits into 780 9 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2734.39
If we subtract 756 from 780, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
84 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2734.392
If we take 168 away from 240, we end up with 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 10:
720 divided by 84 is 8 with a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2734.3928
Subtracting 672 from 720 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 11:
480 divided by 84 is 5 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2734.39285
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 420 from 480.
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 12:
600 divided by 84 is 7 with a remainder of 12.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2734.392857
If we take 588 away from 600, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
84 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2734.3928571
If we subtract 84 from 120, we 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 84 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2734.39285714
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2734.39285714 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
