217385 divided by 76 
We want to divide 217385 by 76.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 76

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 76 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 76

Advancing to step 3:
The number 76 fits into 217 2 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 152 from 217 leaves us with 65.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 65, then repeat: 653 / 76

Step 4:
76 can be fit into 653 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we take 608 away from 653, we end up with 45.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 458 / 76

Step 5:
458 divided by 76 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 286.0
If we subtract 456 from 458, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 76

Step 6:
The number 76 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2860.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 250 by 76, we get 3 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2860.3
Deduct 228 from 250 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
220 divided by 76 is 2 with a remainder of 68.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2860.32
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 152 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 680 by 76, we get 8 and a remainder of 72.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2860.328
If we take 608 away from 680, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 76 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2860.3289
Subtract 684 from 720 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 360 by 76, we get 4 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2860.32894
If we subtract 304 from 360, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 76 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2860.328947
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 532 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
280 divided by 76 is 3 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2860.3289473
If we subtract 228 from 280, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
520 divided by 76 is 6 with a remainder of 64.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2860.32894736
Subtracting 456 from 520 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2860.32894736 with a remaining 6.4e-08.
