Let's divide 176972 by 35
We want to divide 176972 by 35.

Advancing to step 1:
35 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 35

Step 2:
The number 35 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 176 / 35

Step 3:
35 can be fit into 176 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 175 from 176, we get 1.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 19 / 35

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 35 fits into 19 0 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 0 from 19.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 197 / 35

Moving on to step 5:
197 divided by 35 is 5 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 505.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 175 from 197.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 222 / 35

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 35 fits into 222 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5056.0
If we subtract 210 from 222, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
35 goes into 120 3 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5056.3
Subtracting 105 from 120 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 35 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5056.34
If we take 140 away from 150, we end up 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.

On to step 9:
The number 35 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5056.342
If we subtract 70 from 100, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 35, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5056.3428
If we take 280 away from 300, 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 11:
If we divide 200 by 35, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5056.34285
If we take 175 away from 200, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 12:
35 goes into 250 7 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5056.342857
Deduct 245 from 250 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
50 divided by 35 is 1 with a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5056.3428571
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 35 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 150 by 35, we get 4 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5056.34285714
Deduct 140 from 150 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.

The quotient of the division is 5056.34285714, and the remainder is 1e-08.
