We divide 4971290 by 836
We're looking to find how many times 836 goes into 4971290.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 836 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 836

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 836, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 49 leaves us with 49.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 49 and continue with: 497 / 836

Moving on to step 3:
The number 836 fits into 497 0 times, leaving a remainder of 497.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 497, we get 497.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 497 and continue: 4971 / 836

Going ahead to step 4:
836 goes into 4971 5 times with a remainder of 791.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 791 after subtracting 4180 from 4971.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 791, then repeat: 7912 / 836

Moving on to step 5:
The number 836 fits into 7912 9 times, leaving a remainder of 388.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 7524 from 7912 leaves us with 388.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 388, then carry on: 3889 / 836

Moving on to step 6:
3889 divided by 836 is 4 with a remainder of 545.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 594.0
Subtract 3344 from 3889 to get 545.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 545, then carry on: 5450 / 836

Advancing to step 7:
836 goes into 5450 6 times with a remainder of 434.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5946.0
If we subtract 5016 from 5450, we get 434.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
4340 divided by 836 is 5 with a remainder of 160.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5946.5
Deduct 4180 from 4340 and we're left 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 9:
The number 836 fits into 1600 1 times, leaving a remainder of 764.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5946.51
If we take 836 away from 1600, we end up with 764.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 7640 by 836, we get 9 and a remainder of 116.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5946.519
If we subtract 7524 from 7640, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 1160 by 836, we get 1 with a remainder of 324.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5946.5191
If we take 836 away from 1160, we end up with 324.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
836 goes into 3240 3 times with a remainder of 732.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5946.51913
Subtracting 2508 from 3240 leaves us with 732.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7320, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 836 fits into 7320 8 times, leaving a remainder of 632.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5946.519138
Subtracting 6688 from 7320 leaves us with 632.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
836 can be fit into 6320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 468.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5946.5191387
If we take 5852 away from 6320, we end up with 468.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4680, and continue the process.

Step 15:
836 goes into 4680 5 times with a remainder of 500.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5946.51913875
Subtract 4180 from 4680 to get 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5946.51913875 and a remainder of 5e-07.
