We divide 217453 by 44
We want to divide 217453 by 44.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 44 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 21 / 44

Moving on to step 2:
44 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 217 / 44

Advancing to step 3:
44 can be fit into 217 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 176 from 217 leaves us with 41.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 414 / 44

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 44 fits into 414 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Deduct 396 from 414 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 185 / 44

Advancing to step 5:
The number 44 fits into 185 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 494.0
If we subtract 176 from 185, we get 9.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 93 / 44

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 93 by 44, we get 2 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4942.0
Subtracting 88 from 93 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
44 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4942.1
Subtracting 44 from 50 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 60 by 44, we get 1 with a remainder of 16.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4942.11
Deduct 44 from 60 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4942.11 with a balance of 0.016.
