We're dividing 17286176 by 172 
We want to figure out the number of times 17286176 can be divided by 172.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 172

On to step 2:
172 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 172 / 172

On to step 3:
172 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 172 away from 172, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 172

Advancing to step 4:
The number 172 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 172

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 86 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 86.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100.0
Subtracting 0 from 86 leaves us with 86.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 86 and continue: 861 / 172

Let's proceed to step 6:
861 divided by 172 is 5 with a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1005.0
Subtracting 860 from 861 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 172

Going ahead to step 7:
172 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10050.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 176 / 172

Advancing to step 8:
The number 172 fits into 176 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 100501.0
Subtract 172 from 176 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
40 divided by 172 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 100501.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, 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.

Step 10:
The number 172 fits into 400 2 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100501.02
Subtract 344 from 400 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 172 fits into 560 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 100501.023
Subtract 516 from 560 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 440 by 172, we get 2 with a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 100501.0232
If we take 344 away from 440, we end up with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 172 fits into 960 5 times, leaving a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 100501.02325
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 860 from 960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Step 14:
1000 divided by 172 is 5 with a remainder of 140.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 100501.023255
Subtract 860 from 1000 to get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 100501.023255 with a remaining 1.4e-05.
