We divide 161787 by 12
Our goal is to divide 161787 by 12.

On to step 1:
12 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
12 can be fit into 16 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 12 from 16 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 12

Advancing to step 3:
The number 12 fits into 41 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 36 from 41 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 57 / 12

Step 4:
12 goes into 57 4 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 134.0
Subtracting 48 from 57 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 12

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 98 by 12, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1348.0
Deduct 96 from 98 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 12

Let's proceed to step 6:
12 goes into 27 2 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13482.0
Deduct 24 from 27 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 12 fits into 30 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 13482.2
If we subtract 24 from 30, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 60 by 12, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13482.25
Deduct 60 from 60 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.

On to step 9:
12 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13482.25
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.

Step 10:
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: 13482.25
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.

After the division, we end up with 13482.25 and a remainder of 0.0.
