We're dividing 12899254 by 164 
We want to figure out the number of times 12899254 can be divided by 164.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 164 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 164

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 164 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 128 / 164

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 164 fits into 128 0 times, leaving a remainder of 128.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 128, we get 128.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 128 and continue with: 1289 / 164

Advancing to step 4:
164 goes into 1289 7 times with a remainder of 141.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 1148 from 1289, we get 141.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 141, then repeat: 1419 / 164

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 1419 by 164, we get 8 and a remainder of 107.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78.0
If we take 1312 away from 1419, we end up with 107.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 107, then repeat: 1072 / 164

Moving on to step 6:
The number 164 fits into 1072 6 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 786.0
Subtract 984 from 1072 to get 88.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 88 and continue with: 885 / 164

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 885 by 164, we get 5 and a remainder of 65.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7865.0
If we take 820 away from 885, we end up with 65.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 65 and repeat the process: 654 / 164

Advancing to step 8:
The number 164 fits into 654 3 times, leaving a remainder of 162.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78653.0
Subtracting 492 from 654 leaves us with 162.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
164 can be fit into 1620 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 144.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78653.9
The remainder is 144 after subtracting 1476 from 1620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 1440 by 164, we get 8 and a remainder of 128.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 78653.98
Subtracting 1312 from 1440 leaves us with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
1280 divided by 164 is 7 with a remainder of 132.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78653.987
Subtracting 1148 from 1280 leaves us with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
164 can be fit into 1320 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 78653.9878
If we take 1312 away from 1320, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 164, we get 0 and a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 78653.9878
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 14:
If we divide 800 by 164, we get 4 and a remainder of 144.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78653.987804
If we subtract 656 from 800, we get 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
164 goes into 1440 8 times with a remainder of 128.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 78653.9878048
The remainder is 128 after subtracting 1312 from 1440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
The number 164 fits into 1280 7 times, leaving a remainder of 132.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 78653.98780487
If we take 1148 away from 1280, we end up with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 78653.98780487 and a remainder of 1.32e-07.
