We look at the division of 172408 by 4 
Our goal is to divide 172408 by 4.

Advancing to step 1:
4 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
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 4

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 4, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 16 away from 17, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 4

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 12 by 4, we get 3 with a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43.0
Subtracting 12 from 12 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 4

Advancing to step 4:
4 divided by 4 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 431.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 0 / 4

Moving on to step 5:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4310.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 4

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 8 by 4, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 43102.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43102.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43102.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 43102.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
