Your input: convert $$$\frac{300}{21}$$$ into a decimal.

Write the problem in the special format:

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{ccc}\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\21&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{ccc}3&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lll}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 1

How many $$$21$$$'s are in $$$3$$$?

The answer is $$$0$$$.

Write down $$$0$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$3-21 \cdot 0 = 3 - 0= 3$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}\color{Peru}{0}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{21}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}\color{Peru}{3}& 0 \downarrow&0&.&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 2

How many $$$21$$$'s are in $$$30$$$?

The answer is $$$1$$$.

Write down $$$1$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$30-21 \cdot 1 = 30 - 21= 9$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}0&\color{OrangeRed}{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{21}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}3&0& 0 \downarrow&.&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}\color{OrangeRed}{3}&\color{OrangeRed}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}2&1&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&9&0&\phantom{.}\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 3

How many $$$21$$$'s are in $$$90$$$?

The answer is $$$4$$$.

Write down $$$4$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$90-21 \cdot 4 = 90 - 84= 6$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}0&1&\color{Chocolate}{4}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{21}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}3&0&0&.& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}2&1&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&\color{Chocolate}{9}&\color{Chocolate}{0}&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&8&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&6&\phantom{.}&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 4

How many $$$21$$$'s are in $$$60$$$?

The answer is $$$2$$$.

Write down $$$2$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$60-21 \cdot 2 = 60 - 42= 18$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}0&1&4&.&\color{Red}{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{21}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}3&0&0&.&0& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}2&1&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&9&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&8&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{Red}{6}&\phantom{.}&\color{Red}{0}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&4&\phantom{.}&2\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&1&\phantom{.}&8&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$

Step 5

How many $$$21$$$'s are in $$$180$$$?

The answer is $$$8$$$.

Write down $$$8$$$ in the upper part of the table.

Now, $$$180-21 \cdot 8 = 180 - 168= 12$$$.

Bring down the next digit of the dividend.

$$$\require{enclose}\begin{array}{rlc}&\phantom{-\enclose{longdiv}{}}\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}0&1&4&.&2&\color{DarkCyan}{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}&\phantom{2}&\phantom{8}&\phantom{5}&\phantom{7}&\phantom{1}&\phantom{4}\end{array}&\\\color{Magenta}{21}&\phantom{-}\enclose{longdiv}{\begin{array}{cccccccccccccccc}3&0&0&.&0&0& 0 \downarrow&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0&0\end{array}}&\\&\begin{array}{lllllllllllllll}-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}0&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}3&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}2&1&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&9&0&\phantom{.}\\-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&8&4&\phantom{.}\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&6&\phantom{.}&0\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&4&\phantom{.}&2\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&\color{DarkCyan}{1}&\phantom{.}&\color{DarkCyan}{8}&\color{DarkCyan}{0}\\&-&\phantom{0}&\phantom{.}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}&\phantom{0}\\\phantom{lll}&&1&\phantom{.}&6&8\\\hline\phantom{lll}&&&&1&2&0\end{array}&\begin{array}{c}\end{array}\end{array}$$$
