We divide 868971 by 84
Our goal is to divide 868971 by 84.

On to step 1:
The number 84 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 86 / 84

Advancing to step 2:
The number 84 fits into 86 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 84 from 86 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 84

Step 3:
The number 84 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 0 from 28.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 289 / 84

Moving on to step 4:
84 can be fit into 289 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 103.0
Subtracting 252 from 289 leaves us with 37.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 377 / 84

Let's proceed to step 5:
377 divided by 84 is 4 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1034.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 336 from 377.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 411 / 84

Moving on to step 6:
84 can be fit into 411 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10344.0
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 336 from 411.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 750 by 84, we get 8 with a remainder of 78.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10344.8
Deduct 672 from 750 and we're left with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 780 by 84, we get 9 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10344.89
If we take 756 away from 780, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 240 by 84, we get 2 and a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10344.892
If we take 168 away from 240, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 10:
84 goes into 720 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10344.8928
Deduct 672 from 720 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 480 by 84, we get 5 with a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10344.89285
Deduct 420 from 480 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 600 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10344.892857
If we subtract 588 from 600, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
120 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10344.8928571
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 360 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10344.89285714
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10344.89285714 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
