We're dividing 218018 by 86 
We want to divide 218018 by 86.

Moving on to step 1:
86 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 21 / 86

Going ahead to step 2:
86 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 218 / 86

Step 3:
When dividing 218 by 86, we get 2 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 172 from 218 leaves us with 46.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 460 / 86

Step 4:
If we divide 460 by 86, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we subtract 430 from 460, we get 30.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 301 / 86

On to step 5:
If we divide 301 by 86, we get 3 and a remainder of 43.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 253.0
If we take 258 away from 301, we end up with 43.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 438 / 86

Moving on to step 6:
86 goes into 438 5 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2535.0
Deduct 430 from 438 and we're left with 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 7:
When dividing 80 by 86, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2535.0
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
86 goes into 800 9 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2535.09
Deduct 774 from 800 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 9:
86 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2535.093
Deduct 258 from 260 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 20 by 86, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2535.093
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 200 by 86, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2535.09302
If we subtract 172 from 200, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
86 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2535.093023
If we take 258 away from 280, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 86 fits into 220 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2535.0930232
Subtracting 172 from 220 leaves us 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 14:
86 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2535.09302325
Deduct 430 from 480 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2535.09302325 and a remainder of 5e-08.
