We're dividing 118172 by 84 
We want to divide 118172 by 84.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 84, we get 0 and 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.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 84

Moving on to step 2:
The number 84 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 11 and we're left with 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 84

On to step 3:
118 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 84 from 118.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 341 / 84

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 341 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 336 from 341 to get 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 84

On to step 5:
84 goes into 57 0 times with a remainder of 57.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 140.0
Subtracting 0 from 57 leaves us with 57.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 572 / 84

Going ahead to step 6:
84 goes into 572 6 times with a remainder of 68.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1406.0
Subtract 504 from 572 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
84 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1406.8
If we subtract 672 from 680, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
84 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1406.8
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
84 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1406.809
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 756 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 440 by 84, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1406.8095
Deduct 420 from 440 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 84, we get 2 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1406.80952
Deduct 168 from 200 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
84 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1406.809523
Subtract 252 from 320 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 13:
680 divided by 84 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1406.8095238
Subtract 672 from 680 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 84 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1406.8095238
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

The final result is 1406.8095238 with a remainder of 8e-08.
