Let's divide 231427 by 76
Our goal is to divide 231427 by 76.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 76 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.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 76

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 76 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 231 / 76

Advancing to step 3:
231 divided by 76 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 228 from 231.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 76

Step 4:
When dividing 34 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we take 0 away from 34, we end up with 34.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 342 / 76

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 342 by 76, we get 4 and a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 304.0
Subtracting 304 from 342 leaves us with 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 76

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 387 by 76, we get 5 with a remainder of 7.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3045.0
Subtract 380 from 387 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
76 goes into 70 0 times with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3045.0
Subtracting 0 from 70 leaves us with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Step 8:
76 goes into 700 9 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3045.09
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 684 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 160 by 76, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3045.092
Subtracting 152 from 160 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
76 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3045.0921
Subtracting 76 from 80 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.

Step 11:
When dividing 40 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3045.0921
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
76 goes into 400 5 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3045.092105
If we take 380 away from 400, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
200 divided by 76 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3045.0921052
Subtract 152 from 200 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 480 by 76, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3045.09210526
Subtract 456 from 480 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3045.09210526 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
