We're dividing 123621 by 71 
We're looking to find how many times 71 goes into 123621.

Advancing to step 1:
71 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 71

On to step 2:
71 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 123 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 123 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 71 from 123.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 526 / 71

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 526 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 497 away from 526, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 292 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 71 fits into 292 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 174.0
Subtract 284 from 292 to get 8.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 81 / 71

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 81 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1741.0
If we take 71 away from 81, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
100 divided by 71 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1741.1
Deduct 71 from 100 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
290 divided by 71 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1741.14
If we take 284 away from 290, we end up with 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 9:
71 goes into 60 0 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1741.14
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 71 fits into 600 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1741.1408
If we subtract 568 from 600, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1741.14084
Subtracting 284 from 320 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 71 fits into 360 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1741.140845
Subtracting 355 from 360 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 71 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1741.140845
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
71 can be fit into 500 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1741.14084507
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 497 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

The final result is 1741.14084507 with a remainder of 3e-09.
