We divide 214187 by 71
We want to divide 214187 by 71.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 71 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 71

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 214 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
The number 71 fits into 214 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 213 from 214.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 71

On to step 4:
If we divide 11 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 118 / 71

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 118 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 301.0
Subtract 71 from 118 to get 47.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 477 / 71

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 477 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 51.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3016.0
Subtracting 426 from 477 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
71 goes into 510 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3016.7
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 497 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 130 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 59.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3016.71
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 71 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 71 fits into 590 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3016.718
Subtracting 568 from 590 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 71, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3016.7183
If we take 213 away from 220, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
71 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3016.7183
Subtract 0 from 70 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
71 can be fit into 700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3016.718309
Subtracting 639 from 700 leaves us with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
71 goes into 610 8 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3016.7183098
Subtracting 568 from 610 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 71 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3016.71830985
Subtracting 355 from 420 leaves us with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3016.71830985 and a remainder of 6.5e-08.
