168497 divided by 43 
We want to divide 168497 by 43.

Going ahead to step 1:
43 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 43

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 168 / 43

Step 3:
When dividing 168 by 43, we get 3 with a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 129 from 168 to get 39.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 394 / 43

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 43 fits into 394 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we take 387 away from 394, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 43

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 79 by 43, we get 1 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 391.0
Deduct 43 from 79 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 367 / 43

Let's proceed to step 6:
43 can be fit into 367 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3918.0
If we subtract 344 from 367, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
43 can be fit into 230 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3918.5
Subtracting 215 from 230 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
150 divided by 43 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3918.53
Deduct 129 from 150 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
210 divided by 43 is 4 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3918.534
Subtracting 172 from 210 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
43 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3918.5348
Deduct 344 from 380 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 43 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3918.53488
Deduct 344 from 360 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3918.53488 and a remainder of 1.6e-05.
