Let's divide 188598 by 71
We want to divide 188598 by 71.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 71 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 71

Let's proceed to step 2:
71 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 188 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 188 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 142 from 188 and we're left with 46.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 465 / 71

On to step 4:
71 goes into 465 6 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Deduct 426 from 465 and we're left with 39.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 399 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 399 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 265.0
If we subtract 355 from 399, we get 44.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 448 / 71

Step 6:
If we divide 448 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2656.0
Subtracting 426 from 448 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 7:
220 divided by 71 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2656.3
If we take 213 away from 220, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
71 goes into 70 0 times with a remainder of 70.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2656.3
Subtracting 0 from 70 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 700 9 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2656.309
Subtract 639 from 700 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
71 can be fit into 610 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2656.3098
If we subtract 568 from 610, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 71 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2656.30985
Subtract 355 from 420 to get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 71 fits into 650 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2656.309859
Subtract 639 from 650 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 71 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2656.3098591
If we subtract 71 from 110, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 71 fits into 390 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2656.30985915
Subtracting 355 from 390 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2656.30985915 with a remaining 3.5e-08.
