We're dividing 8578074 by 212 
We want to figure out the number of times 8578074 can be divided by 212.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 212 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 212

Let's proceed to step 2:
212 can be fit into 85 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 85.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 85 and we're left with 85.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 85, then repeat: 857 / 212

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 857 by 212, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 848 away from 857, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 212

On to step 4:
98 divided by 212 is 0 with a remainder of 98.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtracting 0 from 98 leaves us with 98.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 980 / 212

Step 5:
212 can be fit into 980 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 132.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 404.0
If we take 848 away from 980, we end up with 132.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 132 and continue: 1327 / 212

Step 6:
The number 212 fits into 1327 6 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4046.0
If we subtract 1272 from 1327, we get 55.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 554 / 212

Let's proceed to step 7:
554 divided by 212 is 2 with a remainder of 130.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40462.0
The remainder is 130 after subtracting 424 from 554.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 1300 by 212, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 40462.6
If we take 1272 away from 1300, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
280 divided by 212 is 1 with a remainder of 68.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40462.61
If we take 212 away from 280, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 10:
212 goes into 680 3 times with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 40462.613
If we subtract 636 from 680, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 440 by 212, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 40462.6132
Subtracting 424 from 440 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
160 divided by 212 is 0 with a remainder of 160.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40462.6132
If we take 0 away from 160, we end up with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 212 fits into 1600 7 times, leaving a remainder of 116.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40462.613207
Subtract 1484 from 1600 to get 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
212 can be fit into 1160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 40462.6132075
Subtract 1060 from 1160 to get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
1000 divided by 212 is 4 with a remainder of 152.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40462.61320754
Subtract 848 from 1000 to get 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

The final result is 40462.61320754 with a remainder of 1.52e-07.
