We look at the division of 16859844 by 453 
Our goal is to divide 16859844 by 453.

Step 1:
453 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 453

Going ahead to step 2:
453 can be fit into 16 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 168 / 453

Advancing to step 3:
168 divided by 453 is 0 with a remainder of 168.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 168, we end up with 168.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 168, then carry on: 1685 / 453

Advancing to step 4:
The number 453 fits into 1685 3 times, leaving a remainder of 326.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 1359 from 1685, we get 326.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 326 and repeat the process: 3269 / 453

Moving on to step 5:
453 can be fit into 3269 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 98.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 37.0
The remainder is 98 after subtracting 3171 from 3269.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 988 / 453

Advancing to step 6:
453 goes into 988 2 times with a remainder of 82.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 372.0
If we take 906 away from 988, we end up with 82.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 82 and continue with: 824 / 453

Moving on to step 7:
453 goes into 824 1 times with a remainder of 371.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3721.0
If we take 453 away from 824, we end up with 371.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 371 and continue with: 3714 / 453

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 3714 by 453, we get 8 with a remainder of 90.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37218.0
Deduct 3624 from 3714 and we're left with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 453 fits into 900 1 times, leaving a remainder of 447.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 37218.1
Subtracting 453 from 900 leaves us with 447.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 4470 by 453, we get 9 with a remainder of 393.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 37218.19
The remainder is 393 after subtracting 4077 from 4470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3930, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
453 goes into 3930 8 times with a remainder of 306.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 37218.198
The remainder is 306 after subtracting 3624 from 3930.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3060, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
3060 divided by 453 is 6 with a remainder of 342.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37218.1986
Subtract 2718 from 3060 to get 342.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
3420 divided by 453 is 7 with a remainder of 249.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37218.19867
Deduct 3171 from 3420 and we're left with 249.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2490, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 453 fits into 2490 5 times, leaving a remainder of 225.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 37218.198675
Subtracting 2265 from 2490 leaves us with 225.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
2250 divided by 453 is 4 with a remainder of 438.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37218.1986754
If we subtract 1812 from 2250, we get 438.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 4380 by 453, we get 9 with a remainder of 303.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37218.19867549
The remainder is 303 after subtracting 4077 from 4380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3030, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 37218.19867549 and a remainder of 3.03e-07.
