178707 divided by 83 
Let's see how many times 83 fits into 178707.

Going ahead to step 1:
83 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 83

Step 2:
83 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 178 / 83

On to step 3:
83 goes into 178 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 166 from 178.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 83

Advancing to step 4:
127 divided by 83 is 1 with a remainder of 44.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 83 from 127 and we're left with 44.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 440 / 83

On to step 5:
83 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 215.0
Subtract 415 from 440 to get 25.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 257 / 83

On to step 6:
The number 83 fits into 257 3 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2153.0
Deduct 249 from 257 and we're left 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.

On to step 7:
83 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2153.0
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 0 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 800 by 83, we get 9 with a remainder of 53.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2153.09
Subtract 747 from 800 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
83 can be fit into 530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2153.096
If we subtract 498 from 530, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
320 divided by 83 is 3 with a remainder of 71.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2153.0963
Subtracting 249 from 320 leaves us with 71.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 710, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
710 divided by 83 is 8 with a remainder of 46.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2153.09638
If we take 664 away from 710, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 460 by 83, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2153.096385
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 415 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 450 by 83, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2153.0963855
If we take 415 away from 450, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

The final result is 2153.0963855 with a remainder of 3.5e-07.
