We divide 16958734 by 401
Our goal is to divide 16958734 by 401.

Moving on to step 1:
401 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 401

Let's proceed to step 2:
16 divided by 401 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 16 and we're left with 16.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 169 / 401

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 401 fits into 169 0 times, leaving a remainder of 169.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 169 leaves us with 169.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 169 and repeat the process: 1695 / 401

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 1695 by 401, we get 4 and a remainder of 91.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 1604 from 1695 to get 91.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 91, then repeat: 918 / 401

Advancing to step 5:
918 divided by 401 is 2 with a remainder of 116.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 802 from 918 leaves us with 116.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 116 and continue with: 1167 / 401

Moving on to step 6:
401 goes into 1167 2 times with a remainder of 365.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 422.0
Deduct 802 from 1167 and we're left with 365.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 365 and continue with: 3653 / 401

On to step 7:
401 can be fit into 3653 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4229.0
Subtract 3609 from 3653 to get 44.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 444 / 401

On to step 8:
444 divided by 401 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42291.0
If we subtract 401 from 444, we get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 430 by 401, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 42291.1
Deduct 401 from 430 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 290 by 401, we get 0 and a remainder of 290.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42291.1
If we take 0 away from 290, we end up with 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 2900 by 401, we get 7 and a remainder of 93.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 42291.107
Deduct 2807 from 2900 and we're left with 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 930 by 401, we get 2 and a remainder of 128.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42291.1072
If we subtract 802 from 930, we get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
401 can be fit into 1280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 77.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42291.10723
Subtracting 1203 from 1280 leaves us with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 401 fits into 770 1 times, leaving a remainder of 369.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42291.107231
If we subtract 401 from 770, we get 369.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3690, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
3690 divided by 401 is 9 with a remainder of 81.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42291.1072319
Subtract 3609 from 3690 to get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 810 by 401, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42291.10723192
If we take 802 away from 810, 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.

The final result is 42291.10723192 with a remainder of 8e-09.
