Let's divide 172892 by 29
Let's see how many times 29 fits into 172892.

On to step 1:
The number 29 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 29

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 29, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 172 / 29

Step 3:
When dividing 172 by 29, we get 5 with a remainder of 27.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 145 from 172, we get 27.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 278 / 29

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 29 fits into 278 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 261 away from 278, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 179 / 29

Advancing to step 5:
The number 29 fits into 179 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 596.0
If we subtract 174 from 179, we get 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 29

Going ahead to step 6:
29 goes into 52 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5961.0
If we subtract 29 from 52, 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:
29 goes into 230 7 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5961.7
Subtracting 203 from 230 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
29 can be fit into 270 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5961.79
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 261 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
29 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5961.793
If we take 87 away from 90, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 10:
29 can be fit into 30 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5961.7931
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 29 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 29, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5961.7931
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 29, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5961.793103
Subtracting 87 from 100 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.

Advancing to step 13:
130 divided by 29 is 4 with a remainder of 14.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5961.7931034
Subtracting 116 from 130 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 29 fits into 140 4 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5961.79310344
Subtract 116 from 140 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5961.79310344 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
