Let's divide 18656488 by 317
We want to divide 18656488 by 317.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 317, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 317

Step 2:
317 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 18 leaves us with 18.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 186 / 317

On to step 3:
186 divided by 317 is 0 with a remainder of 186.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 186, we get 186.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 186, then carry on: 1865 / 317

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 317 fits into 1865 5 times, leaving a remainder of 280.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 1585 from 1865 leaves us with 280.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 280 and repeat the process: 2806 / 317

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 2806 by 317, we get 8 and a remainder of 270.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtract 2536 from 2806 to get 270.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 270 and repeat the process: 2704 / 317

On to step 6:
If we divide 2704 by 317, we get 8 and a remainder of 168.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 588.0
Deduct 2536 from 2704 and we're left with 168.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 168, then carry on: 1688 / 317

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 1688 by 317, we get 5 with a remainder of 103.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5885.0
If we take 1585 away from 1688, we end up with 103.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 103, then repeat: 1038 / 317

Going ahead to step 8:
317 can be fit into 1038 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 58853.0
The remainder is 87 after subtracting 951 from 1038.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 870 by 317, we get 2 and a remainder of 236.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58853.2
Subtract 634 from 870 to get 236.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 317 fits into 2360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 141.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58853.27
Subtract 2219 from 2360 to get 141.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
317 goes into 1410 4 times with a remainder of 142.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58853.274
Subtracting 1268 from 1410 leaves us with 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
1420 divided by 317 is 4 with a remainder of 152.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58853.2744
Deduct 1268 from 1420 and we're left with 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 58853.2744 with a balance of 0.00152.
