Let's divide 846971 by 12
Our goal is to divide 846971 by 12.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 12, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 84 by 12, we get 7 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 84 from 84 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 12

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 6 by 12, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 70.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 12

Advancing to step 4:
12 can be fit into 69 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 705.0
If we subtract 60 from 69, we get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 12

On to step 5:
When dividing 97 by 12, we get 8 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7058.0
If we take 96 away from 97, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 12

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 11 by 12, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 70580.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
110 divided by 12 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 70580.9
Deduct 108 from 110 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 12 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 70580.91
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 12 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
12 goes into 80 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 70580.916
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
80 divided by 12 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 70580.9166
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 70580.9166 with a remainder of 8e-05.
