871229 ÷ 76 
We want to figure out the number of times 871229 can be divided by 76.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 76

On to step 2:
76 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 76 from 87 and we're left with 11.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 111 / 76

Going ahead to step 3:
76 can be fit into 111 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 76 from 111.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 352 / 76

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 352 by 76, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114.0
If we subtract 304 from 352, we get 48.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 482 / 76

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 76 fits into 482 6 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1146.0
Deduct 456 from 482 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 269 / 76

On to step 6:
269 divided by 76 is 3 with a remainder of 41.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11463.0
If we take 228 away from 269, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 410 by 76, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11463.5
Deduct 380 from 410 and we're left with 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 8:
300 divided by 76 is 3 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11463.53
Subtract 228 from 300 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 720 by 76, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11463.539
Deduct 684 from 720 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 76 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11463.5394
Deduct 304 from 360 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
76 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11463.53947
Subtracting 532 from 560 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 12:
280 divided by 76 is 3 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11463.539473
Subtract 228 from 280 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 520 by 76, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11463.5394736
Subtracting 456 from 520 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 640 by 76, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11463.53947368
Subtracting 608 from 640 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.

Our division results in 11463.53947368 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
