Let's divide 220561 by 12
Our goal is to divide 220561 by 12.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 12

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 22 by 12, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 12 from 22 and we're left with 10.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 100 / 12

Going ahead to step 3:
12 goes into 100 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 96 from 100.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 12

Step 4:
The number 12 fits into 45 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 183.0
Subtracting 36 from 45 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 12

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 96 by 12, we get 8 and a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1838.0
Subtract 96 from 96 to get 0.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 1 / 12

Advancing to step 6:
The number 12 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18380.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us 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.

On to step 7:
The number 12 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18380.0
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 8:
100 divided by 12 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18380.08
Subtracting 96 from 100 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 12, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18380.083
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 40 by 12, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18380.0833
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 18380.0833, and the remainder is 4e-05.
