We look at the division of 167172 by 1 
We want to figure out the number of times 167172 can be divided by 1.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 goes into 1 1 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 1 from 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 1

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 6 by 1, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 6 from 6 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 1

On to step 3:
When dividing 7 by 1, we get 7 with a remainder of 0.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167.0
If we take 7 away from 7, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 1

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 1 fits into 1 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1671.0
Subtract 1 from 1 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 1

Going ahead to step 5:
1 can be fit into 7 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16717.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 7 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 1

Moving on to step 6:
1 can be fit into 2 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 167172.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us 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 7:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167172.0
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.

Step 8:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167172.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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 167172.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
