We divide 171084 by 84
We want to divide 171084 by 84.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 84

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 171 / 84

Moving on to step 3:
171 divided by 84 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 168 from 171 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 30 / 84

On to step 4:
If we divide 30 by 84, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 308 / 84

Step 5:
84 goes into 308 3 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 203.0
Deduct 252 from 308 and we're left with 56.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 56 and continue with: 564 / 84

Step 6:
84 goes into 564 6 times with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2036.0
If we subtract 504 from 564, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 600 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 12.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2036.7
If we subtract 588 from 600, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 120 by 84, we get 1 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2036.71
Subtract 84 from 120 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 84 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2036.714
If we take 336 away from 360, 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 10:
If we divide 240 by 84, we get 2 and a remainder of 72.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2036.7142
If we subtract 168 from 240, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 84 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2036.71428
Subtracting 672 from 720 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
84 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2036.714285
Subtract 420 from 480 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 13:
84 can be fit into 600 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2036.7142857
If we take 588 away from 600, 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.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 84, we get 1 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2036.71428571
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2036.71428571 with a balance of 3.6e-08.
