We're dividing 217969 by 82 
Let's see how many times 82 fits into 217969.

On to step 1:
82 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 82

On to step 2:
82 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 82

On to step 3:
When dividing 217 by 82, we get 2 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 164 from 217 leaves us with 53.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 539 / 82

Step 4:
82 goes into 539 6 times with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 492 from 539 to get 47.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 476 / 82

Going ahead to step 5:
476 divided by 82 is 5 with a remainder of 66.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 265.0
Deduct 410 from 476 and we're left with 66.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 66 and continue: 669 / 82

Step 6:
If we divide 669 by 82, we get 8 and a remainder of 13.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2658.0
Subtracting 656 from 669 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
82 can be fit into 130 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2658.1
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 82 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 480 by 82, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2658.15
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 410 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
700 divided by 82 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2658.158
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 656 from 700.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 440 by 82, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2658.1585
Deduct 410 from 440 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 300 by 82, we get 3 and a remainder of 54.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2658.15853
If we take 246 away from 300, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
540 divided by 82 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2658.158536
If we take 492 away from 540, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
82 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 70.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2658.1585365
If we subtract 410 from 480, we get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
82 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2658.15853658
Subtracting 656 from 700 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2658.15853658 and a remainder of 4.4e-08.
