Let's divide 17764912 by 279
Our goal is to divide 17764912 by 279.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 279, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 279

Moving on to step 2:
17 divided by 279 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 177 / 279

Step 3:
If we divide 177 by 279, we get 0 and a remainder of 177.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 177 after subtracting 0 from 177.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 177, then carry on: 1776 / 279

Moving on to step 4:
279 goes into 1776 6 times with a remainder of 102.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 1674 from 1776, we get 102.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 102 and continue with: 1024 / 279

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 279 fits into 1024 3 times, leaving a remainder of 187.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63.0
The remainder is 187 after subtracting 837 from 1024.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 187 and continue with: 1879 / 279

Going ahead to step 6:
279 goes into 1879 6 times with a remainder of 205.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 636.0
Subtract 1674 from 1879 to get 205.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 205 and repeat the process: 2051 / 279

Advancing to step 7:
279 can be fit into 2051 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 98.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6367.0
The remainder is 98 after subtracting 1953 from 2051.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 98, then carry on: 982 / 279

Step 8:
The number 279 fits into 982 3 times, leaving a remainder of 145.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63673.0
The remainder is 145 after subtracting 837 from 982.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
279 can be fit into 1450 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63673.5
Subtract 1395 from 1450 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
279 goes into 550 1 times with a remainder of 271.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63673.51
Subtracting 279 from 550 leaves us with 271.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 279 fits into 2710 9 times, leaving a remainder of 199.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63673.519
Deduct 2511 from 2710 and we're left with 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1990, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 279 fits into 1990 7 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63673.5197
Subtracting 1953 from 1990 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 370 by 279, we get 1 and a remainder of 91.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63673.51971
Deduct 279 from 370 and we're left with 91.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 910, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
910 divided by 279 is 3 with a remainder of 73.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63673.519713
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 837 from 910.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 730 by 279, we get 2 with a remainder of 172.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63673.5197132
If we subtract 558 from 730, we get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 1720 by 279, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63673.51971326
Subtract 1674 from 1720 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 63673.51971326 and a remainder of 4.6e-08.
