We divide 178487 by 10
Our goal is to divide 178487 by 10.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 10 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 10

Moving on to step 2:
10 goes into 17 1 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 10 from 17 to get 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 10

Going ahead to step 3:
10 can be fit into 78 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 70 from 78 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 84 / 10

On to step 4:
If we divide 84 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 178.0
If we take 80 away from 84, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 10

Let's proceed to step 5:
48 divided by 10 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1784.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 40 from 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 10

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 87 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 7.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17848.0
If we take 80 away from 87, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
10 can be fit into 70 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17848.7
If we subtract 70 from 70, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
10 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17848.7
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17848.7
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 17848.7 and a remainder of 0.0.
