We look at the division of 20972988 by 112 
We're looking to find how many times 112 goes into 20972988.

Advancing to step 1:
112 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 112

Step 2:
112 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 209 / 112

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 209 by 112, we get 1 with a remainder of 97.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 112 away from 209, we end up with 97.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 97 and continue: 977 / 112

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 977 by 112, we get 8 with a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 896 from 977 and we're left with 81.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 81 and repeat the process: 812 / 112

Moving on to step 5:
The number 112 fits into 812 7 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 187.0
Deduct 784 from 812 and we're left with 28.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 289 / 112

Let's proceed to step 6:
112 can be fit into 289 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1872.0
If we take 224 away from 289, we end up with 65.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 65 and continue with: 658 / 112

Moving on to step 7:
The number 112 fits into 658 5 times, leaving a remainder of 98.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 18725.0
Deduct 560 from 658 and we're left with 98.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 98 and continue with: 988 / 112

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 988 by 112, we get 8 with a remainder of 92.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187258.0
Subtract 896 from 988 to get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 112 fits into 920 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187258.8
If we subtract 896 from 920, we 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.

Advancing to step 10:
240 divided by 112 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187258.82
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 112, we get 1 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187258.821
Subtract 112 from 160 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 12:
112 goes into 480 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187258.8214
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 448 from 480.
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 13:
112 goes into 320 2 times with a remainder of 96.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187258.82142
Deduct 224 from 320 and we're left with 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 960 by 112, we get 8 with a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187258.821428
Subtracting 896 from 960 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 15:
The number 112 fits into 640 5 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 187258.8214285
The remainder is 80 after subtracting 560 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 800 by 112, we get 7 and a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187258.82142857
Deduct 784 from 800 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.

The final result is 187258.82142857 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
