281672 ÷ 12 
We want to figure out the number of times 281672 can be divided by 12.

Step 1:
2 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 12

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 12, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 24 from 28 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 41 / 12

Step 3:
When dividing 41 by 12, we get 3 with a remainder of 5.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 36 away from 41, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 12

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 12 fits into 56 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 234.0
If we take 48 away from 56, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 12

Moving on to step 5:
12 goes into 87 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2347.0
If we take 84 away from 87, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 32 / 12

On to step 6:
32 divided by 12 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23472.0
Subtract 24 from 32 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 80 by 12, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23472.6
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 8:
80 divided by 12 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23472.66
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 23472.66 with a remaining 0.008.
