196878 divided by 12 
Let's see how many times 12 fits into 196878.

Step 1:
12 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.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 12 fits into 19 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 12 from 19 to get 7.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 76 / 12

Step 3:
12 can be fit into 76 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 72 away from 76, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 12

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 48 by 12, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 164.0
If we subtract 48 from 48, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 12

Step 5:
The number 12 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1640.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 12

Step 6:
12 can be fit into 78 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16406.0
Subtract 72 from 78 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
12 can be fit into 60 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16406.5
Deduct 60 from 60 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
0 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16406.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
12 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16406.5
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.

Our division results in 16406.5 with a remaining 0.0.
