Let's divide 173531 by 43
We're looking to find how many times 43 goes into 173531.

Moving on to step 1:
1 divided by 43 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.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 43

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 43 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 173 / 43

Let's proceed to step 3:
173 divided by 43 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 172 from 173, we get 1.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 43

Moving on to step 4:
43 can be fit into 15 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 153 / 43

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 153 by 43, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 403.0
If we subtract 129 from 153, we get 24.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 241 / 43

Advancing to step 6:
43 can be fit into 241 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4035.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 215 from 241.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 260 by 43, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4035.6
Subtracting 258 from 260 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4035.6
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 43 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4035.604
Subtract 172 from 200 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
280 divided by 43 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4035.6046
Subtract 258 from 280 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 43 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4035.60465
If we take 215 away from 220, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 12:
43 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4035.604651
If we subtract 43 from 50, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
43 goes into 70 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4035.6046511
If we subtract 43 from 70, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4035.6046511 with a balance of 2.7e-07.
