We're dividing 214786 by 28 
We want to divide 214786 by 28.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 28 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 28

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 21 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 28

On to step 3:
214 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 196 away from 214, we end up with 18.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 187 / 28

Moving on to step 4:
The number 28 fits into 187 6 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 76.0
Deduct 168 from 187 and we're left with 19.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 198 / 28

Let's proceed to step 5:
28 can be fit into 198 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 767.0
Subtract 196 from 198 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 28

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 26 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7670.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 28 fits into 260 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7670.9
Subtract 252 from 260 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 80 by 28, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 7670.92
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 28 fits into 240 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7670.928
Subtract 224 from 240 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 28, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7670.9285
Subtract 140 from 160 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7670.92857
Subtracting 196 from 200 leaves us 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.

On to step 12:
The number 28 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7670.928571
Subtract 28 from 40 to 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.

Step 13:
When dividing 120 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7670.9285714
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 112 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 80 by 28, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7670.92857142
Deduct 56 from 80 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.

Our division results in 7670.92857142 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
