Let's divide 21811875 by 973
We want to figure out the number of times 21811875 can be divided by 973.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 973, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 973

Step 2:
When dividing 21 by 973, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 21 to get 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 973

Going ahead to step 3:
218 divided by 973 is 0 with a remainder of 218.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 218, we end up with 218.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 218 and repeat the process: 2181 / 973

Let's proceed to step 4:
973 can be fit into 2181 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 235.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1946 from 2181, we get 235.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 235, then repeat: 2351 / 973

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 2351 by 973, we get 2 and a remainder of 405.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Deduct 1946 from 2351 and we're left with 405.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 405 and repeat the process: 4058 / 973

Let's proceed to step 6:
4058 divided by 973 is 4 with a remainder of 166.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 224.0
Deduct 3892 from 4058 and we're left with 166.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 166, then repeat: 1667 / 973

Step 7:
973 can be fit into 1667 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 694.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2241.0
Deduct 973 from 1667 and we're left with 694.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 694, then carry on: 6945 / 973

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 6945 by 973, we get 7 and a remainder of 134.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22417.0
If we take 6811 away from 6945, we end up with 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 973 fits into 1340 1 times, leaving a remainder of 367.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22417.1
Deduct 973 from 1340 and we're left with 367.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 3670 by 973, we get 3 with a remainder of 751.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22417.13
Deduct 2919 from 3670 and we're left with 751.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7510, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 7510 by 973, we get 7 with a remainder of 699.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22417.137
The remainder is 699 after subtracting 6811 from 7510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6990, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
973 goes into 6990 7 times with a remainder of 179.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22417.1377
Subtract 6811 from 6990 to get 179.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1790, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 22417.1377 and a remainder of 0.00179.
