5174672 divided by 872 
We want to divide 5174672 by 872.

Moving on to step 1:
872 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 872

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 51 by 872, we get 0 and a remainder of 51.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 51 and we're left with 51.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 517 / 872

Step 3:
872 goes into 517 0 times with a remainder of 517.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 517 leaves us with 517.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 517 and repeat the process: 5174 / 872

Let's proceed to step 4:
872 can be fit into 5174 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 814.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 4360 from 5174, we get 814.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 814 and repeat the process: 8146 / 872

On to step 5:
The number 872 fits into 8146 9 times, leaving a remainder of 298.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we subtract 7848 from 8146, we get 298.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 298, then repeat: 2987 / 872

Going ahead to step 6:
872 goes into 2987 3 times with a remainder of 371.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 593.0
Subtracting 2616 from 2987 leaves us with 371.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 371 and repeat the process: 3712 / 872

On to step 7:
872 can be fit into 3712 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 224.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5934.0
Subtracting 3488 from 3712 leaves us with 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
872 can be fit into 2240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 496.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5934.2
Subtract 1744 from 2240 to get 496.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4960, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
872 can be fit into 4960 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 600.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5934.25
Deduct 4360 from 4960 and we're left with 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
872 goes into 6000 6 times with a remainder of 768.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5934.256
Subtracting 5232 from 6000 leaves us with 768.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7680, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
872 goes into 7680 8 times with a remainder of 704.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5934.2568
Deduct 6976 from 7680 and we're left with 704.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Step 12:
872 can be fit into 7040 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5934.25688
If we subtract 6976 from 7040, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5934.25688 with a remaining 6.4e-05.
