Let's divide 878171 by 70
We want to figure out the number of times 878171 can be divided by 70.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 70 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 70

Step 2:
When dividing 87 by 70, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 70 from 87 and we're left with 17.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 178 / 70

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 178 by 70, we get 2 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 140 away from 178, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 381 / 70

Let's proceed to step 4:
70 goes into 381 5 times with a remainder of 31.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 125.0
Subtract 350 from 381 to get 31.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 317 / 70

Going ahead to step 5:
70 goes into 317 4 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1254.0
Deduct 280 from 317 and we're left with 37.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 371 / 70

Step 6:
70 goes into 371 5 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12545.0
If we take 350 away from 371, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
70 goes into 210 3 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12545.3
If we take 210 away from 210, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
70 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12545.3
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 70 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12545.3
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

After the division, we end up with 12545.3 and a remainder of 0.0.
