We're dividing 216473 by 44 
We want to divide 216473 by 44.

Let's proceed to step 1:
44 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 44

Moving on to step 2:
The number 44 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 216 / 44

Going ahead to step 3:
216 divided by 44 is 4 with a remainder of 40.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 176 away from 216, we end up with 40.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 404 / 44

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 404 by 44, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtracting 396 from 404 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 44

Moving on to step 5:
87 divided by 44 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 491.0
Subtract 44 from 87 to get 43.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 433 / 44

On to step 6:
When dividing 433 by 44, we get 9 with a remainder of 37.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4919.0
If we subtract 396 from 433, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 370 by 44, we get 8 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4919.8
Deduct 352 from 370 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
44 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4919.84
Deduct 176 from 180 and we're left 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 40 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4919.84
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
44 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4919.8409
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 396 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
40 divided by 44 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4919.8409
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 44, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4919.840909
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 396 from 400.
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 13:
If we divide 40 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4919.840909
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
400 divided by 44 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4919.84090909
Deduct 396 from 400 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 4919.84090909 with a remaining 4e-09.
