We're dividing 179961 by 76 
We want to figure out the number of times 179961 can be divided by 76.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 76 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 76

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 179 / 76

Let's proceed to step 3:
179 divided by 76 is 2 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 152 from 179 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 76

Step 4:
If we divide 279 by 76, we get 3 and a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
Deduct 228 from 279 and we're left with 51.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 516 / 76

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 516 by 76, we get 6 with a remainder of 60.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 236.0
If we subtract 456 from 516, we get 60.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 60 and continue with: 601 / 76

Let's proceed to step 6:
76 can be fit into 601 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2367.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 532 from 601.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
76 can be fit into 690 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.9
Subtract 684 from 690 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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 76 fits into 60 0 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.9
Subtract 0 from 60 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 600 by 76, we get 7 and a remainder of 68.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2367.907
If we subtract 532 from 600, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 10:
680 divided by 76 is 8 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2367.9078
If we take 608 away from 680, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
76 can be fit into 720 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.90789
Subtracting 684 from 720 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
360 divided by 76 is 4 with a remainder of 56.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2367.907894
If we take 304 away from 360, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 560 by 76, we get 7 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2367.9078947
If we subtract 532 from 560, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
76 goes into 280 3 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2367.90789473
If we take 228 away from 280, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2367.90789473 with a balance of 5.2e-08.
