We look at the division of 218369 by 71 
We want to divide 218369 by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
71 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
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 / 71

On to step 2:
21 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 218 / 71

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 218 by 71, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 213 from 218 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 53 / 71

Moving on to step 4:
71 can be fit into 53 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 0 from 53.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 536 / 71

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 536 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 307.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 497 from 536.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 399 / 71

Step 6:
If we divide 399 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3075.0
Subtracting 355 from 399 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
71 can be fit into 440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3075.6
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 426 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 69.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3075.61
Subtracting 71 from 140 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 690 9 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3075.619
Deduct 639 from 690 and we're left with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 510 by 71, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3075.6197
If we take 497 away from 510, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
71 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3075.61971
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 71 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
590 divided by 71 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3075.619718
If we subtract 568 from 590, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
71 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3075.6197183
Deduct 213 from 220 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 70 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 70.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3075.6197183
Subtract 0 from 70 to 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.

The final result is 3075.6197183 with a remainder of 7e-08.
