3171 divided by 872 is 3 with a remainder of 555.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 2616 from 3171, we get 555.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 555 and continue with: 5551 / 872

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 5551 by 872, we get 6 and a remainder of 319.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 636.0
Subtracting 5232 from 5551 leaves us with 319.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 319, then repeat: 3197 / 872

On to step 7:
872 can be fit into 3197 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 581.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6363.0
Subtracting 2616 from 3197 leaves us with 581.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 581 and continue with: 5817 / 872

On to step 8:
When dividing 5817 by 872, we get 6 with a remainder of 585.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63636.0
Subtract 5232 from 5817 to get 585.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5850, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 5850 by 872, we get 6 with a remainder of 618.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63636.6
If we subtract 5232 from 5850, we get 618.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
872 can be fit into 6180 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63636.67
Deduct 6104 from 6180 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
872 can be fit into 760 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 760.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 63636.67
Subtract 0 from 760 to get 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
7600 divided by 872 is 8 with a remainder of 624.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63636.6708
Deduct 6976 from 7600 and we're left with 624.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
6240 divided by 872 is 7 with a remainder of 136.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 63636.67087
Deduct 6104 from 6240 and we're left with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
872 goes into 1360 1 times with a remainder of 488.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63636.670871
Deduct 872 from 1360 and we're left with 488.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
872 can be fit into 4880 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 520.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63636.6708715
If we take 4360 away from 4880, we end up with 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5200, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 5200 by 872, we get 5 and a remainder of 840.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63636.67087155
Subtracting 4360 from 5200 leaves us with 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 63636.67087155 with a remaining 8.4e-07.
