We're dividing 201997 by 28 
We want to divide 201997 by 28.

Let's proceed to step 1:
28 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 20 / 28

Step 2:
20 divided by 28 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 201 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
28 can be fit into 201 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 196 from 201 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 28

Step 4:
28 goes into 59 2 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 72.0
Subtracting 56 from 59 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 28

Step 5:
When dividing 39 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 721.0
If we take 28 away from 39, we end up with 11.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 117 / 28

On to step 6:
When dividing 117 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7214.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 112 from 117.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 28 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7214.1
If we subtract 28 from 50, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 28 fits into 220 7 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7214.17
Deduct 196 from 220 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 240 by 28, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7214.178
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 28 fits into 160 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7214.1785
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 140 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 200 by 28, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7214.17857
Deduct 196 from 200 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
40 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7214.178571
If we take 28 away from 40, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
28 can be fit into 120 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7214.1785714
Subtracting 112 from 120 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.

Moving on to step 14:
28 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7214.17857142
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 7214.17857142, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
