224173 ÷ 12 
We want to divide 224173 by 12.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 12 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 12 fits into 22 1 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 12 from 22 and we're left with 10.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 104 / 12

Let's proceed to step 3:
12 can be fit into 104 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 96 from 104 to get 8.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 12

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 81 by 12, we get 6 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 186.0
Subtracting 72 from 81 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 12

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 97 by 12, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1868.0
If we take 96 away from 97, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 12

Moving on to step 6:
13 divided by 12 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18681.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 12 from 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 12 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18681.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
100 divided by 12 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18681.08
If we take 96 away from 100, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 12, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18681.083
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
12 can be fit into 40 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18681.0833
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 18681.0833 with a balance of 4e-05.
