We divide 2152661 by 726
Our goal is to divide 2152661 by 726.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 726, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 726

Step 2:
When dividing 21 by 726, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 215 / 726

Step 3:
The number 726 fits into 215 0 times, leaving a remainder of 215.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 215, we end up with 215.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 215 and repeat the process: 2152 / 726

Advancing to step 4:
The number 726 fits into 2152 2 times, leaving a remainder of 700.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 1452 from 2152 leaves us with 700.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 700 and continue with: 7006 / 726

Going ahead to step 5:
7006 divided by 726 is 9 with a remainder of 472.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we subtract 6534 from 7006, we get 472.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 472, then repeat: 4726 / 726

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 4726 by 726, we get 6 with a remainder of 370.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 296.0
The remainder is 370 after subtracting 4356 from 4726.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 370, then carry on: 3701 / 726

Moving on to step 7:
726 can be fit into 3701 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2965.0
Subtracting 3630 from 3701 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
726 can be fit into 710 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 710.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2965.0
Subtract 0 from 710 to get 710.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 7100 by 726, we get 9 with a remainder of 566.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2965.09
Subtract 6534 from 7100 to get 566.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
726 goes into 5660 7 times with a remainder of 578.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2965.097
Subtract 5082 from 5660 to get 578.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5780, and continue the process.

Step 11:
726 goes into 5780 7 times with a remainder of 698.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2965.0977
Subtract 5082 from 5780 to get 698.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6980, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2965.0977, and the remainder is 0.00698.
