We're dividing 286397 by 16 
Let's see how many times 16 fits into 286397.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 16 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 16

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 16 fits into 28 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 16 from 28.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 126 / 16

Going ahead to step 3:
16 can be fit into 126 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 112 away from 126, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 143 / 16

Going ahead to step 4:
16 goes into 143 8 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 178.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 128 from 143.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 159 / 16

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 159 by 16, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1789.0
Deduct 144 from 159 and we're left with 15.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 157 / 16

Let's proceed to step 6:
16 can be fit into 157 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17899.0
If we subtract 144 from 157, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
16 can be fit into 130 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 17899.8
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 128 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 16 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17899.81
Subtracting 16 from 20 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17899.812
If we take 32 away from 40, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17899.8125
Subtract 80 from 80 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17899.8125
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17899.8125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

The final result is 17899.8125 with a remainder of 0.0.
