Let's divide 18494588 by 172
We want to divide 18494588 by 172.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 172 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 172

On to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 184 / 172

Moving on to step 3:
172 can be fit into 184 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 172 from 184, we get 12.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 129 / 172

Going ahead to step 4:
172 goes into 129 0 times with a remainder of 129.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 129, we get 129.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 129 and repeat the process: 1294 / 172

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 1294 by 172, we get 7 and a remainder of 90.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107.0
Deduct 1204 from 1294 and we're left with 90.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 90, then repeat: 905 / 172

Advancing to step 6:
The number 172 fits into 905 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1075.0
Subtract 860 from 905 to get 45.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 458 / 172

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 458 by 172, we get 2 with a remainder of 114.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10752.0
If we take 344 away from 458, we end up with 114.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 114, then repeat: 1148 / 172

Let's proceed to step 8:
1148 divided by 172 is 6 with a remainder of 116.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107526.0
Subtract 1032 from 1148 to get 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
172 goes into 1160 6 times with a remainder of 128.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107526.6
Subtracting 1032 from 1160 leaves us with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
1280 divided by 172 is 7 with a remainder of 76.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107526.67
Subtract 1204 from 1280 to get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 172 fits into 760 4 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107526.674
Subtract 688 from 760 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 720 by 172, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 107526.6744
If we take 688 away from 720, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 107526.6744, with a leftover of 0.00032.
