Let's divide 13872078 by 524
We want to divide 13872078 by 524.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 524, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 13 / 524

Advancing to step 2:
The number 524 fits into 13 0 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 0 from 13.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 138 / 524

Moving on to step 3:
524 can be fit into 138 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 138.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 138, we get 138.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 138, then repeat: 1387 / 524

Step 4:
When dividing 1387 by 524, we get 2 with a remainder of 339.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 1048 from 1387 and we're left with 339.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 339 and continue: 3392 / 524

On to step 5:
524 goes into 3392 6 times with a remainder of 248.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 3144 from 3392 leaves us with 248.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 248 and continue with: 2480 / 524

Advancing to step 6:
524 can be fit into 2480 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 384.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 264.0
If we subtract 2096 from 2480, we get 384.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 384, then carry on: 3847 / 524

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 3847 by 524, we get 7 and a remainder of 179.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2647.0
Deduct 3668 from 3847 and we're left with 179.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 179, then repeat: 1798 / 524

Going ahead to step 8:
524 can be fit into 1798 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 226.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26473.0
Subtracting 1572 from 1798 leaves us with 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 2260 by 524, we get 4 and a remainder of 164.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26473.4
Subtracting 2096 from 2260 leaves us with 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 524 fits into 1640 3 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26473.43
If we take 1572 away from 1640, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
524 goes into 680 1 times with a remainder of 156.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26473.431
The remainder is 156 after subtracting 524 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
1560 divided by 524 is 2 with a remainder of 512.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26473.4312
Deduct 1048 from 1560 and we're left with 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
524 goes into 5120 9 times with a remainder of 404.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26473.43129
If we subtract 4716 from 5120, we get 404.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4040, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 4040 by 524, we get 7 with a remainder of 372.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26473.431297
The remainder is 372 after subtracting 3668 from 4040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 3720 by 524, we get 7 with a remainder of 52.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26473.4312977
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 3668 from 3720.
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 26473.4312977 with a remaining 5.2e-07.
