We divide 226459 by 21
We're looking to find how many times 21 goes into 226459.

Advancing to step 1:
21 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 21

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 22 by 21, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 21 from 22.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 21

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 16 by 21, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 21

Going ahead to step 4:
164 divided by 21 is 7 with a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107.0
Deduct 147 from 164 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 175 / 21

Step 5:
If we divide 175 by 21, we get 8 and a remainder of 7.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1078.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 168 from 175.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 21

On to step 6:
79 divided by 21 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 10783.0
Deduct 63 from 79 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.

Step 7:
21 goes into 160 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10783.7
Subtracting 147 from 160 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
21 can be fit into 130 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10783.76
Deduct 126 from 130 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
21 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10783.761
Subtracting 21 from 40 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
21 can be fit into 190 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10783.7619
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 189 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 21 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10783.7619
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 21, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10783.761904
Subtract 84 from 100 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 160 by 21, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10783.7619047
If we take 147 away from 160, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 21 fits into 130 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10783.76190476
If we subtract 126 from 130, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10783.76190476 with a balance of 4e-09.
