Let's divide 62917 by 82
We want to figure out the number of times 62917 can be divided by 82.

Going ahead to step 1:
82 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 82

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 62 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 62.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 62 and we're left with 62.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 62 and continue with: 629 / 82

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 629 by 82, we get 7 and a remainder of 55.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 574 from 629 to get 55.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 551 / 82

Step 4:
The number 82 fits into 551 6 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76.0
Subtracting 492 from 551 leaves us with 59.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 597 / 82

Advancing to step 5:
82 can be fit into 597 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 767.0
Subtract 574 from 597 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 230 by 82, we get 2 with a remainder of 66.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 767.2
If we take 164 away from 230, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
82 can be fit into 660 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 767.28
Subtracting 656 from 660 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
82 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 767.28
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
400 divided by 82 is 4 with a remainder of 72.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 767.2804
Subtract 328 from 400 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
82 can be fit into 720 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 767.28048
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 656 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
640 divided by 82 is 7 with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 767.280487
If we subtract 574 from 640, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 82 fits into 660 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 767.2804878
Subtract 656 from 660 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
82 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 767.2804878
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 767.2804878 and a remainder of 4e-08.
