We divide 172276 by 81
We want to divide 172276 by 81.

Let's proceed to step 1:
81 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 81

On to step 2:
17 divided by 81 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 172 / 81

Step 3:
81 can be fit into 172 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 162 from 172 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 102 / 81

On to step 4:
81 goes into 102 1 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 81 from 102 to get 21.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 217 / 81

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 217 by 81, we get 2 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 212.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 162 from 217.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 556 / 81

Step 6:
When dividing 556 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2126.0
If we subtract 486 from 556, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 700 by 81, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2126.8
If we subtract 648 from 700, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 520 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 34.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2126.86
Deduct 486 from 520 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 9:
340 divided by 81 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2126.864
If we subtract 324 from 340, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 160 by 81, we get 1 and a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2126.8641
Deduct 81 from 160 and we're left with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
81 can be fit into 790 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2126.86419
Subtracting 729 from 790 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
81 can be fit into 610 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2126.864197
Subtracting 567 from 610 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 430 by 81, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2126.8641975
If we take 405 away from 430, 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.

Moving on to step 14:
81 goes into 250 3 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2126.86419753
If we take 243 away from 250, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2126.86419753 and a remainder of 7e-09.
