Let's divide 232586 by 82
We want to divide 232586 by 82.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 82 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 82

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 23 by 82, we get 0 and a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 232 / 82

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 232 by 82, we get 2 with a remainder of 68.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 164 from 232 to get 68.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 68, then repeat: 685 / 82

Step 4:
82 can be fit into 685 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 656 from 685, we get 29.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 298 / 82

Going ahead to step 5:
82 can be fit into 298 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 283.0
Subtract 246 from 298 to get 52.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 526 / 82

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 526 by 82, we get 6 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2836.0
Subtracting 492 from 526 leaves us with 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 7:
The number 82 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2836.4
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 328 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 82 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2836.41
Deduct 82 from 120 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 380 by 82, we get 4 with a remainder of 52.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2836.414
If we subtract 328 from 380, 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 520 by 82, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2836.4146
If we take 492 away from 520, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 280 by 82, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2836.41463
If we take 246 away from 280, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 82 fits into 340 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2836.414634
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 328 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 82 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2836.4146341
If we subtract 82 from 120, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 82 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2836.41463414
Deduct 328 from 380 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final result is 2836.41463414 with a remainder of 5.2e-08.
