We divide 218020 by 71
Our goal is to divide 218020 by 71.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 21 / 71

Advancing to step 2:
The number 71 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 218 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 218 by 71, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 213 from 218.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 71 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 502 / 71

Step 5:
71 goes into 502 7 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 307.0
If we take 497 away from 502, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 71

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 50 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3070.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 500 by 71, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3070.7
Deduct 497 from 500 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 30 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3070.7
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3070.704
If we subtract 284 from 300, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 71 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3070.7042
Subtracting 142 from 160 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 180 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3070.70422
If we take 142 away from 180, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3070.70422 with a remaining 3.8e-05.
