We're dividing 686881 by 35 
We're looking to find how many times 35 goes into 686881.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 35 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 35

Going ahead to step 2:
35 goes into 68 1 times with a remainder of 33.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 35 from 68 to get 33.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 336 / 35

Advancing to step 3:
The number 35 fits into 336 9 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we take 315 away from 336, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 35

On to step 4:
35 goes into 218 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 196.0
Deduct 210 from 218 and we're left with 8.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 88 / 35

On to step 5:
88 divided by 35 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1962.0
Subtracting 70 from 88 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 181 / 35

On to step 6:
The number 35 fits into 181 5 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19625.0
If we take 175 away from 181, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
60 divided by 35 is 1 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19625.1
Subtract 35 from 60 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 35 fits into 250 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19625.17
Subtract 245 from 250 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 9:
50 divided by 35 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19625.171
If we take 35 away from 50, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 150 by 35, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19625.1714
Deduct 140 from 150 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 100 by 35, we get 2 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19625.17142
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 70 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 300 by 35, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19625.171428
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 35 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19625.1714285
Subtracting 175 from 200 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
250 divided by 35 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19625.17142857
If we take 245 away from 250, we end up 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.

Our division results in 19625.17142857 with a remaining 5e-09.
