We're dividing 18218973 by 696 
We want to figure out the number of times 18218973 can be divided by 696.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 696 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 696

Let's proceed to step 2:
696 goes into 18 0 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 182 / 696

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 182 by 696, we get 0 with a remainder of 182.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 182, we end up with 182.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 182 and continue: 1821 / 696

Step 4:
696 goes into 1821 2 times with a remainder of 429.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 1392 from 1821 to get 429.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 429 and continue: 4298 / 696

Step 5:
The number 696 fits into 4298 6 times, leaving a remainder of 122.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Deduct 4176 from 4298 and we're left with 122.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 122 and repeat the process: 1229 / 696

On to step 6:
The number 696 fits into 1229 1 times, leaving a remainder of 533.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 261.0
Deduct 696 from 1229 and we're left with 533.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 533 and continue with: 5337 / 696

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 5337 by 696, we get 7 and a remainder of 465.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2617.0
The remainder is 465 after subtracting 4872 from 5337.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 465, then repeat: 4653 / 696

Let's proceed to step 8:
696 goes into 4653 6 times with a remainder of 477.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26176.0
Subtracting 4176 from 4653 leaves us with 477.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
696 can be fit into 4770 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 594.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26176.6
If we take 4176 away from 4770, we end up with 594.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 5940 by 696, we get 8 with a remainder of 372.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26176.68
Subtract 5568 from 5940 to get 372.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 696 fits into 3720 5 times, leaving a remainder of 240.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26176.685
If we take 3480 away from 3720, we end up with 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 2400 by 696, we get 3 and a remainder of 312.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26176.6853
Deduct 2088 from 2400 and we're left with 312.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3120, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
3120 divided by 696 is 4 with a remainder of 336.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26176.68534
Subtracting 2784 from 3120 leaves us with 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

Step 14:
696 goes into 3360 4 times with a remainder of 576.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26176.685344
If we subtract 2784 from 3360, we get 576.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5760, and continue the process.

The final result is 26176.685344 with a remainder of 5.76e-05.
