1736980 divided by 870 
We're looking to find how many times 870 goes into 1736980.

Step 1:
When dividing 1 by 870, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 870

Step 2:
870 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 173 / 870

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 173 by 870, we get 0 and a remainder of 173.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 173 to get 173.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 173 and continue with: 1736 / 870

Going ahead to step 4:
870 can be fit into 1736 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 866.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 870 from 1736 to get 866.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 866, then repeat: 8669 / 870

Let's proceed to step 5:
8669 divided by 870 is 9 with a remainder of 839.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 7830 from 8669, we get 839.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 839 and continue with: 8398 / 870

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 8398 by 870, we get 9 and a remainder of 568.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 199.0
Subtracting 7830 from 8398 leaves us with 568.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 568, then repeat: 5680 / 870

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 5680 by 870, we get 6 and a remainder of 460.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.0
Deduct 5220 from 5680 and we're left with 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
4600 divided by 870 is 5 with a remainder of 250.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1996.5
Subtracting 4350 from 4600 leaves us with 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Step 9:
2500 divided by 870 is 2 with a remainder of 760.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1996.52
Subtracting 1740 from 2500 leaves us with 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
870 can be fit into 7600 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 640.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1996.528
Deduct 6960 from 7600 and we're left with 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 870 fits into 6400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 310.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1996.5287
Subtract 6090 from 6400 to get 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3100, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 870 fits into 3100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 490.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1996.52873
Subtract 2610 from 3100 to get 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4900, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
870 goes into 4900 5 times with a remainder of 550.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1996.528735
Subtract 4350 from 4900 to get 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
870 can be fit into 5500 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 280.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1996.5287356
If we subtract 5220 from 5500, we get 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
870 goes into 2800 3 times with a remainder of 190.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1996.52873563
If we subtract 2610 from 2800, we get 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1996.52873563 and a remainder of 1.9e-07.
