We're dividing 178246 by 84 
We want to figure out the number of times 178246 can be divided by 84.

Going ahead to step 1:
84 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 84

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 178 / 84

On to step 3:
84 goes into 178 2 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 168 away from 178, we end up with 10.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 102 / 84

Moving on to step 4:
84 can be fit into 102 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 84 from 102, we get 18.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 184 / 84

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 184 by 84, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 212.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 168 from 184.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 166 / 84

Moving on to step 6:
84 goes into 166 1 times with a remainder of 82.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2121.0
Deduct 84 from 166 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 820 by 84, we get 9 and a remainder of 64.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2121.9
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 756 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 640 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2121.97
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 588 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 9:
84 can be fit into 520 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2121.976
Subtract 504 from 520 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 84, we get 1 with a remainder of 76.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2121.9761
The remainder is 76 after subtracting 84 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 760 by 84, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2121.97619
Deduct 756 from 760 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.

On to step 12:
The number 84 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2121.97619
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
84 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2121.9761904
Subtracting 336 from 400 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
640 divided by 84 is 7 with a remainder of 52.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2121.97619047
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 588 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final result is 2121.97619047 with a remainder of 5.2e-08.
