Let's divide 10540 by 84
Our goal is to divide 10540 by 84.

On to step 1:
84 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 10 / 84

Advancing to step 2:
84 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 105 / 84

Going ahead to step 3:
84 goes into 105 1 times with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 84 from 105 leaves us with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 84

Let's proceed to step 4:
84 goes into 214 2 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 168 from 214 leaves us with 46.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 460 / 84

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 84 fits into 460 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 125.0
If we take 420 away from 460, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 400 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 64.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 125.4
Subtract 336 from 400 to 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.

On to step 7:
84 can be fit into 640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.47
Subtracting 588 from 640 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 84 fits into 520 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.476
Deduct 504 from 520 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.

Advancing to step 9:
84 can be fit into 160 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.4761
Deduct 84 from 160 and we're left with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 760 by 84, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 125.47619
Subtracting 756 from 760 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
84 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 125.47619
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.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 125.4761904
Deduct 336 from 400 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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 84, we get 7 and a remainder of 52.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 125.47619047
Subtracting 588 from 640 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 125.47619047 with a remaining 5.2e-08.
