We divide 172264 by 86
Our goal is to divide 172264 by 86.

Let's proceed to step 1:
86 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 86

Moving on to step 2:
86 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 172 / 86

Advancing to step 3:
86 goes into 172 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 172 from 172, we get 0.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 2 / 86

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 2 by 86, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 86

Moving on to step 5:
The number 86 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 200.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 264 / 86

Step 6:
When dividing 264 by 86, we get 3 with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.0
Subtract 258 from 264 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 7:
86 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
86 can be fit into 600 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 84.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2003.06
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 516 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
86 goes into 840 9 times with a remainder of 66.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.069
Subtract 774 from 840 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
86 goes into 660 7 times with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2003.0697
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 602 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 11:
86 goes into 580 6 times with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2003.06976
If we subtract 516 from 580, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
86 can be fit into 640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.069767
Deduct 602 from 640 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
86 can be fit into 380 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2003.0697674
Subtract 344 from 380 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 360 by 86, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2003.06976744
Deduct 344 from 360 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 2003.06976744 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
