We look at the division of 6972916 by 840 
We want to divide 6972916 by 840.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 840, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 840

Advancing to step 2:
The number 840 fits into 69 0 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 69, we get 69.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 69, then repeat: 697 / 840

Step 3:
697 divided by 840 is 0 with a remainder of 697.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 697 to get 697.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 697, then repeat: 6972 / 840

On to step 4:
6972 divided by 840 is 8 with a remainder of 252.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 6720 from 6972, we get 252.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 252 and continue with: 2529 / 840

Step 5:
840 can be fit into 2529 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
If we subtract 2520 from 2529, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 91 / 840

Step 6:
If we divide 91 by 840, we get 0 and a remainder of 91.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 830.0
If we take 0 away from 91, we end up with 91.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 91 and continue with: 916 / 840

Moving on to step 7:
The number 840 fits into 916 1 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8301.0
If we subtract 840 from 916, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 840 fits into 760 0 times, leaving a remainder of 760.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8301.0
If we take 0 away from 760, we end up with 760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 7600 by 840, we get 9 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8301.09
Subtract 7560 from 7600 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 840 fits into 400 0 times, leaving a remainder of 400.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8301.09
If we take 0 away from 400, we end up with 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 4000 by 840, we get 4 and a remainder of 640.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8301.0904
Subtracting 3360 from 4000 leaves us with 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
840 can be fit into 6400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 520.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8301.09047
If we subtract 5880 from 6400, we get 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 13:
When dividing 5200 by 840, we get 6 with a remainder of 160.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8301.090476
Deduct 5040 from 5200 and we're left with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 1600 by 840, we get 1 with a remainder of 760.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8301.0904761
Deduct 840 from 1600 and we're left with 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 15:
If we divide 7600 by 840, we get 9 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8301.09047619
Subtract 7560 from 7600 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8301.09047619 with a balance of 4e-08.
