Let's divide 187870 by 29
We want to divide 187870 by 29.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 29 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 29

Step 2:
The number 29 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 18 leaves us with 18.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 187 / 29

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 187 by 29, we get 6 and a remainder of 13.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 174 from 187 leaves us with 13.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 138 / 29

Advancing to step 4:
29 goes into 138 4 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtracting 116 from 138 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 227 / 29

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 227 by 29, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 647.0
Subtract 203 from 227 to get 24.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 240 / 29

Let's proceed to step 6:
29 can be fit into 240 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6478.0
If we subtract 232 from 240, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
80 divided by 29 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6478.2
If we subtract 58 from 80, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
29 can be fit into 220 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6478.27
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 203 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 170 by 29, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6478.275
If we subtract 145 from 170, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
29 can be fit into 250 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6478.2758
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 232 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 11:
29 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6478.27586
Subtract 174 from 180 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
60 divided by 29 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6478.275862
If we subtract 58 from 60, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
20 divided by 29 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6478.275862
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 29 fits into 200 6 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6478.27586206
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 174 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6478.27586206 with a balance of 2.6e-08.
