We're dividing 179905 by 76 
We want to figure out the number of times 179905 can be divided by 76.

Let's proceed to step 1:
76 goes into 1 0 times 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.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 76

Going ahead to step 2:
76 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 179 / 76

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 179 by 76, we get 2 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 152 from 179.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 76

Step 4:
The number 76 fits into 279 3 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtracting 228 from 279 leaves us with 51.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 510 / 76

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 510 by 76, we get 6 and a remainder of 54.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 236.0
If we take 456 away from 510, we end up with 54.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 545 / 76

Step 6:
The number 76 fits into 545 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2367.0
Subtracting 532 from 545 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 130 by 76, we get 1 and a remainder of 54.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.1
If we subtract 76 from 130, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
76 can be fit into 540 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.17
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 532 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 76, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2367.171
If we subtract 76 from 80, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 76 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2367.171
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
400 divided by 76 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2367.17105
If we take 380 away from 400, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 200 by 76, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2367.171052
Subtract 152 from 200 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
76 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.1710526
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 456 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
240 divided by 76 is 3 with a remainder of 12.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2367.17105263
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 228 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final result is 2367.17105263 with a remainder of 1.2e-08.
