229861 divided by 84 
We're looking to find how many times 84 goes into 229861.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 84

Step 2:
When dividing 22 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 229 / 84

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 229 by 84, we get 2 and a remainder of 61.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 168 from 229 to get 61.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 61 and repeat the process: 618 / 84

On to step 4:
If we divide 618 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 30.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 588 from 618 leaves us with 30.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 306 / 84

On to step 5:
306 divided by 84 is 3 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 273.0
If we take 252 away from 306, we end up with 54.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 541 / 84

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 541 by 84, we get 6 with a remainder of 37.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2736.0
Deduct 504 from 541 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
84 can be fit into 370 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2736.4
Subtracting 336 from 370 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
84 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2736.44
If we subtract 336 from 340, 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.

After the division, we end up with 2736.44 and a remainder of 0.004.
