Let's divide 3976844 by 217
We want to figure out the number of times 3976844 can be divided by 217.

Advancing to step 1:
217 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 217

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 39 by 217, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 39 to get 39.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 397 / 217

Step 3:
397 divided by 217 is 1 with a remainder of 180.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 217 away from 397, we end up with 180.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 180, then repeat: 1806 / 217

Step 4:
If we divide 1806 by 217, we get 8 and a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 1736 from 1806 to get 70.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 70 and repeat the process: 708 / 217

Going ahead to step 5:
708 divided by 217 is 3 with a remainder of 57.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 183.0
If we take 651 away from 708, we end up with 57.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 57 and repeat the process: 574 / 217

On to step 6:
The number 217 fits into 574 2 times, leaving a remainder of 140.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1832.0
Subtract 434 from 574 to get 140.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 140 and continue with: 1404 / 217

On to step 7:
217 can be fit into 1404 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 102.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18326.0
Subtracting 1302 from 1404 leaves us with 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
217 can be fit into 1020 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 152.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18326.4
Deduct 868 from 1020 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 1520 by 217, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18326.47
Deduct 1519 from 1520 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 217 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18326.47
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 217 fits into 100 0 times, leaving a remainder of 100.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18326.47
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 0 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 18326.47, with a leftover of 0.001.
