We're dividing 17686936 by 728 
We're looking to find how many times 728 goes into 17686936.

On to step 1:
728 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 728

Let's proceed to step 2:
728 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 176 / 728

On to step 3:
If we divide 176 by 728, we get 0 and a remainder of 176.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 176 leaves us with 176.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 176, then repeat: 1768 / 728

Moving on to step 4:
The number 728 fits into 1768 2 times, leaving a remainder of 312.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 1456 from 1768, we get 312.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 312 and repeat the process: 3126 / 728

Advancing to step 5:
The number 728 fits into 3126 4 times, leaving a remainder of 214.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 2912 from 3126 leaves us with 214.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 214, then carry on: 2149 / 728

Step 6:
728 goes into 2149 2 times with a remainder of 693.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242.0
The remainder is 693 after subtracting 1456 from 2149.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 693, then repeat: 6933 / 728

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 6933 by 728, we get 9 with a remainder of 381.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2429.0
If we take 6552 away from 6933, we end up with 381.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 381, then repeat: 3816 / 728

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 3816 by 728, we get 5 with a remainder of 176.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24295.0
Deduct 3640 from 3816 and we're left with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 1760 by 728, we get 2 with a remainder of 304.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24295.2
Subtract 1456 from 1760 to get 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 728 fits into 3040 4 times, leaving a remainder of 128.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24295.24
If we take 2912 away from 3040, we end up with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
728 can be fit into 1280 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 552.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24295.241
If we take 728 away from 1280, we end up with 552.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
728 goes into 5520 7 times with a remainder of 424.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24295.2417
If we subtract 5096 from 5520, we get 424.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4240, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 4240 by 728, we get 5 and a remainder of 600.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24295.24175
If we subtract 3640 from 4240, we get 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6000, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
728 can be fit into 6000 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 176.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 24295.241758
Subtract 5824 from 6000 to get 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
728 can be fit into 1760 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 304.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24295.2417582
Subtract 1456 from 1760 to get 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
When dividing 3040 by 728, we get 4 with a remainder of 128.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24295.24175824
If we take 2912 away from 3040, we end up with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

The final result is 24295.24175824 with a remainder of 1.28e-07.
