We're dividing 171880 by 68 
Our goal is to divide 171880 by 68.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 68, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
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 / 68

Let's proceed to step 2:
68 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 171 / 68

Moving on to step 3:
The number 68 fits into 171 2 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 136 from 171 leaves us with 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 68

Step 4:
The number 68 fits into 358 5 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 340 from 358 and we're left with 18.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 188 / 68

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 188 by 68, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 252.0
If we subtract 136 from 188, we get 52.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 520 / 68

Moving on to step 6:
68 can be fit into 520 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2527.0
Deduct 476 from 520 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 68 fits into 440 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2527.6
Subtracting 408 from 440 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 68 fits into 320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2527.64
Deduct 272 from 320 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 480 by 68, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2527.647
Deduct 476 from 480 and we're left with 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:
68 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2527.647
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 68 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2527.64705
Subtracting 340 from 400 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 600 by 68, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2527.647058
Subtract 544 from 600 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
560 divided by 68 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2527.6470588
Deduct 544 from 560 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2527.6470588 and a remainder of 1.6e-07.
