We divide 174787 by 218
We want to divide 174787 by 218.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 218 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 218

On to step 2:
218 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in 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.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 174 / 218

Going ahead to step 3:
174 divided by 218 is 0 with a remainder of 174.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 174 to get 174.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 174 and continue: 1747 / 218

Advancing to step 4:
218 goes into 1747 8 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 1744 from 1747.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 218

On to step 5:
The number 218 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 80.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 218

Going ahead to step 6:
218 goes into 387 1 times with a remainder of 169.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 801.0
If we subtract 218 from 387, we get 169.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1690, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 218 fits into 1690 7 times, leaving a remainder of 164.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 801.7
Subtracting 1526 from 1690 leaves us with 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 218 fits into 1640 7 times, leaving a remainder of 114.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 801.77
Deduct 1526 from 1640 and we're left with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Our division results in 801.77 with a remaining 0.114.
