We're dividing 871972 by 68 
Let's see how many times 68 fits into 871972.

Let's proceed to step 1:
68 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 68

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 68 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 68 from 87 leaves us with 19.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 191 / 68

Let's proceed to step 3:
191 divided by 68 is 2 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 136 from 191 leaves us with 55.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 559 / 68

On to step 4:
If we divide 559 by 68, we get 8 and a remainder of 15.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 128.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 544 from 559.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 157 / 68

Step 5:
157 divided by 68 is 2 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1282.0
If we take 136 away from 157, we end up with 21.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 212 / 68

On to step 6:
When dividing 212 by 68, we get 3 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12823.0
Subtract 204 from 212 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 80 by 68, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12823.1
If we take 68 away from 80, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
68 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12823.11
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 68 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final result is 12823.11 with a remainder of 0.052.
