Let's divide 2224701 by 729
We want to divide 2224701 by 729.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 729 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 729

On to step 2:
729 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 222 / 729

Advancing to step 3:
222 divided by 729 is 0 with a remainder of 222.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 222 after subtracting 0 from 222.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 222, then repeat: 2224 / 729

Advancing to step 4:
729 goes into 2224 3 times with a remainder of 37.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 2187 away from 2224, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 377 / 729

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 377 by 729, we get 0 with a remainder of 377.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 377 to get 377.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 377 and continue: 3770 / 729

Advancing to step 6:
The number 729 fits into 3770 5 times, leaving a remainder of 125.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 305.0
Subtracting 3645 from 3770 leaves us with 125.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 125, then repeat: 1251 / 729

Moving on to step 7:
The number 729 fits into 1251 1 times, leaving a remainder of 522.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3051.0
If we subtract 729 from 1251, we get 522.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5220, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
5220 divided by 729 is 7 with a remainder of 117.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3051.7
The remainder is 117 after subtracting 5103 from 5220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1170, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 1170 by 729, we get 1 with a remainder of 441.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3051.71
Deduct 729 from 1170 and we're left with 441.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4410, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 729 fits into 4410 6 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3051.716
Subtract 4374 from 4410 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
729 can be fit into 360 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 360.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3051.716
Subtract 0 from 360 to get 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 3600 by 729, we get 4 with a remainder of 684.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3051.71604
Subtract 2916 from 3600 to get 684.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
729 goes into 6840 9 times with a remainder of 279.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3051.716049
If we take 6561 away from 6840, we end up with 279.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2790, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 2790 by 729, we get 3 with a remainder of 603.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3051.7160493
Subtracting 2187 from 2790 leaves us with 603.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6030, and continue the process.

Step 15:
729 goes into 6030 8 times with a remainder of 198.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3051.71604938
Deduct 5832 from 6030 and we're left with 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3051.71604938 and a remainder of 1.98e-07.
