Let's divide 188697 by 28
We're looking to find how many times 28 goes into 188697.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 28, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 28

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 28, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 188 / 28

Step 3:
The number 28 fits into 188 6 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 168 from 188, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 206 / 28

Advancing to step 4:
The number 28 fits into 206 7 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 67.0
If we subtract 196 from 206, we get 10.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 109 / 28

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 109 by 28, we get 3 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 673.0
Deduct 84 from 109 and we're left with 25.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 257 / 28

Step 6:
28 goes into 257 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6739.0
Subtracting 252 from 257 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
28 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6739.1
Subtract 28 from 50 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
220 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6739.17
If we take 196 away from 220, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
240 divided by 28 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6739.178
Subtracting 224 from 240 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 28, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6739.1785
Subtracting 140 from 160 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
28 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6739.17857
If we take 196 away from 200, we end up 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 12:
28 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6739.178571
If we take 28 away from 40, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 120 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6739.1785714
Subtracting 112 from 120 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 14:
28 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6739.17857142
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6739.17857142 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
