We're dividing 16872323 by 646 
Our goal is to divide 16872323 by 646.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 646, we get 0 and 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 (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 646

On to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 646, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 168 / 646

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 168 by 646, we get 0 with a remainder of 168.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 168 after subtracting 0 from 168.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 168, then repeat: 1687 / 646

Let's proceed to step 4:
646 can be fit into 1687 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 395.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 1292 from 1687 and we're left with 395.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 395, then repeat: 3952 / 646

Let's proceed to step 5:
3952 divided by 646 is 6 with a remainder of 76.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 3876 from 3952, we get 76.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 76 and continue: 763 / 646

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 763 by 646, we get 1 and a remainder of 117.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 261.0
Subtract 646 from 763 to get 117.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 117 and continue with: 1172 / 646

Going ahead to step 7:
646 goes into 1172 1 times with a remainder of 526.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2611.0
The remainder is 526 after subtracting 646 from 1172.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 526 and continue: 5263 / 646

Let's proceed to step 8:
646 goes into 5263 8 times with a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 26118.0
Subtracting 5168 from 5263 leaves us with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
646 goes into 950 1 times with a remainder of 304.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26118.1
Subtract 646 from 950 to get 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
646 can be fit into 3040 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 456.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26118.14
The remainder is 456 after subtracting 2584 from 3040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
646 can be fit into 4560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26118.147
Subtract 4522 from 4560 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 380 by 646, we get 0 and a remainder of 380.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 26118.147
The remainder is 380 after subtracting 0 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3800, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 3800 by 646, we get 5 with a remainder of 570.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26118.14705
Subtracting 3230 from 3800 leaves us with 570.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 5700 by 646, we get 8 with a remainder of 532.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 26118.147058
Subtract 5168 from 5700 to get 532.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
646 goes into 5320 8 times with a remainder of 152.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26118.1470588
If we take 5168 away from 5320, we end up with 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Our division results in 26118.1470588 with a remaining 1.52e-06.
