We're dividing 17183710 by 542 
We're looking to find how many times 542 goes into 17183710.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 542 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 542

Going ahead to step 2:
17 divided by 542 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 171 / 542

Step 3:
542 can be fit into 171 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 171.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 171 leaves us with 171.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 171, then repeat: 1718 / 542

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 1718 by 542, we get 3 and a remainder of 92.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 1626 away from 1718, we end up with 92.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 92 and continue: 923 / 542

Step 5:
923 divided by 542 is 1 with a remainder of 381.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we take 542 away from 923, we end up with 381.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 381, then repeat: 3817 / 542

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 3817 by 542, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 317.0
If we subtract 3794 from 3817, we get 23.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 231 / 542

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 231 by 542, we get 0 with a remainder of 231.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3170.0
The remainder is 231 after subtracting 0 from 231.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 231, then repeat: 2310 / 542

On to step 8:
The number 542 fits into 2310 4 times, leaving a remainder of 142.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 31704.0
Deduct 2168 from 2310 and we're left with 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 542 fits into 1420 2 times, leaving a remainder of 336.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31704.2
The remainder is 336 after subtracting 1084 from 1420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
3360 divided by 542 is 6 with a remainder of 108.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31704.26
The remainder is 108 after subtracting 3252 from 3360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
542 goes into 1080 1 times with a remainder of 538.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31704.261
Subtract 542 from 1080 to get 538.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5380, and continue the process.

Step 12:
5380 divided by 542 is 9 with a remainder of 502.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 31704.2619
Subtracting 4878 from 5380 leaves us with 502.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5020, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
542 goes into 5020 9 times with a remainder of 142.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31704.26199
If we take 4878 away from 5020, we end up with 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

The final result is 31704.26199 with a remainder of 0.000142.
