We're dividing 287172 by 35 
Our goal is to divide 287172 by 35.

Step 1:
35 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 35

Step 2:
The number 35 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 287 / 35

Advancing to step 3:
35 can be fit into 287 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 280 from 287 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 71 / 35

Moving on to step 4:
71 divided by 35 is 2 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtracting 70 from 71 leaves us with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 35

Let's proceed to step 5:
35 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 820.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 172 / 35

Going ahead to step 6:
172 divided by 35 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8204.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 140 from 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 35 fits into 320 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8204.9
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 315 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
35 can be fit into 50 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8204.91
If we take 35 away from 50, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 150 by 35, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8204.914
If we take 140 away from 150, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 35 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8204.9142
Subtracting 70 from 100 leaves us 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.

Step 11:
If we divide 300 by 35, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8204.91428
Subtract 280 from 300 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 35 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8204.914285
If we subtract 175 from 200, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
35 goes into 250 7 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8204.9142857
Subtract 245 from 250 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 14:
35 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8204.91428571
If we subtract 35 from 50, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The final result is 8204.91428571 with a remainder of 1.5e-08.
