We look at the division of 172861 by 96 
We want to divide 172861 by 96.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 96, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 96

Step 2:
If we divide 17 by 96, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
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 / 96

Let's proceed to step 3:
172 divided by 96 is 1 with a remainder of 76.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 96 from 172 leaves us with 76.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 76 and repeat the process: 768 / 96

Step 4:
96 can be fit into 768 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 768 away from 768, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 6 / 96

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 6 by 96, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 180.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 61 / 96

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 96 fits into 61 0 times, leaving a remainder of 61.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1800.0
Deduct 0 from 61 and we're left with 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
96 can be fit into 610 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1800.6
If we subtract 576 from 610, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
96 goes into 340 3 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1800.63
If we subtract 288 from 340, 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 96 fits into 520 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1800.635
If we subtract 480 from 520, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 400 by 96, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1800.6354
Subtract 384 from 400 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 96 fits into 160 1 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1800.63541
If we subtract 96 from 160, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 640 by 96, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1800.635416
If we take 576 away from 640, we end up 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.

Step 13:
If we divide 640 by 96, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1800.6354166
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 1800.6354166, and the remainder is 6.4e-07.
