We divide 173860 by 71
We want to divide 173860 by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 71

On to step 2:
71 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 173 / 71

Let's proceed to step 3:
71 can be fit into 173 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 142 from 173 to get 31.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 318 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
71 can be fit into 318 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 284 from 318 leaves us with 34.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 346 / 71

On to step 5:
346 divided by 71 is 4 with a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 244.0
Subtracting 284 from 346 leaves us with 62.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 620 / 71

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 71 fits into 620 8 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2448.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 568 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 520 by 71, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2448.7
Subtract 497 from 520 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
71 goes into 230 3 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2448.73
Deduct 213 from 230 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 170 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2448.732
Subtracting 142 from 170 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 71 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2448.7323
Subtracting 213 from 280 leaves us with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
71 can be fit into 670 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2448.73239
Deduct 639 from 670 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 71 fits into 310 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2448.732394
Deduct 284 from 310 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 71, we get 3 with a remainder of 47.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2448.7323943
Subtracting 213 from 260 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 470 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2448.73239436
Deduct 426 from 470 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 2448.73239436 and a remainder of 4.4e-08.
