We're dividing 44778 by 21 
Our goal is to divide 44778 by 21.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 21 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 21

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 44 by 21, we get 2 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 42 from 44 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 21

On to step 3:
21 can be fit into 27 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 21 from 27, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 67 / 21

Moving on to step 4:
21 can be fit into 67 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 213.0
If we take 63 away from 67, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 21

Moving on to step 5:
48 divided by 21 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2132.0
Subtract 42 from 48 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 21 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2132.2
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
21 can be fit into 180 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2132.28
If we subtract 168 from 180, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
120 divided by 21 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2132.285
Subtracting 105 from 120 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
21 goes into 150 7 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2132.2857
If we subtract 147 from 150, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 21 fits into 30 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2132.28571
Subtracting 21 from 30 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 90 by 21, we get 4 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2132.285714
Deduct 84 from 90 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 60 by 21, we get 2 with a remainder of 18.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2132.2857142
If we subtract 42 from 60, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 180 by 21, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2132.28571428
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final result is 2132.28571428 with a remainder of 1.2e-08.
