We look at the division of 172546 by 25 
Let's see how many times 25 fits into 172546.

Let's proceed to step 1:
25 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 25

Moving on to step 2:
The number 25 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 172 / 25

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 172 by 25, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 150 from 172 and we're left with 22.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 225 / 25

Step 4:
The number 25 fits into 225 9 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 69.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 225 from 225.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 25

Moving on to step 5:
4 divided by 25 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 690.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 46 / 25

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 46 by 25, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6901.0
Deduct 25 from 46 and we're left 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.

On to step 7:
25 can be fit into 210 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6901.8
Subtracting 200 from 210 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
25 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6901.84
Subtracting 100 from 100 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.

Step 9:
The number 25 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6901.84
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 25, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6901.84
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 6901.84 and a remainder of 0.0.
