217056 ÷ 12 
We want to figure out the number of times 217056 can be divided by 12.

Let's proceed to step 1:
12 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 12

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 12, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 12 from 21 leaves us with 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 12

On to step 3:
12 goes into 97 8 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 96 from 97 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 10 / 12

Advancing to step 4:
10 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 180.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 105 / 12

On to step 5:
When dividing 105 by 12, we get 8 with a remainder of 9.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1808.0
Subtract 96 from 105 to get 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 12

Step 6:
12 goes into 96 8 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18088.0
Subtracting 96 from 96 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 12 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18088.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
12 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18088.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 18088.0 with a balance of 0.0.
