We look at the division of 2196271 by 842 
Let's see how many times 842 fits into 2196271.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 842

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 219 / 842

On to step 3:
When dividing 219 by 842, we get 0 with a remainder of 219.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 219, we get 219.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 219, then repeat: 2196 / 842

Step 4:
2196 divided by 842 is 2 with a remainder of 512.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1684 from 2196 to get 512.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 512, then carry on: 5122 / 842

On to step 5:
If we divide 5122 by 842, we get 6 and a remainder of 70.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 5052 from 5122 leaves us with 70.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 70 and continue with: 707 / 842

Moving on to step 6:
The number 842 fits into 707 0 times, leaving a remainder of 707.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 260.0
Subtracting 0 from 707 leaves us with 707.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 707 and continue with: 7071 / 842

Step 7:
If we divide 7071 by 842, we get 8 and a remainder of 335.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2608.0
Subtracting 6736 from 7071 leaves us with 335.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
842 goes into 3350 3 times with a remainder of 824.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2608.3
If we subtract 2526 from 3350, we get 824.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 8240 by 842, we get 9 and a remainder of 662.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2608.39
Subtract 7578 from 8240 to get 662.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
842 can be fit into 6620 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 726.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2608.397
Subtracting 5894 from 6620 leaves us with 726.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 842 fits into 7260 8 times, leaving a remainder of 524.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2608.3978
If we take 6736 away from 7260, we end up with 524.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
842 can be fit into 5240 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 188.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2608.39786
The remainder is 188 after subtracting 5052 from 5240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
842 can be fit into 1880 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 196.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2608.397862
Deduct 1684 from 1880 and we're left with 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 1960 by 842, we get 2 and a remainder of 276.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2608.3978622
Subtract 1684 from 1960 to get 276.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2760, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2608.3978622 with a remaining 2.76e-06.
