We divide 259870 by 29
Let's see how many times 29 fits into 259870.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 29, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 29

On to step 2:
The number 29 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 259 / 29

Moving on to step 3:
The number 29 fits into 259 8 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 232 away from 259, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 278 / 29

Moving on to step 4:
29 can be fit into 278 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 89.0
If we subtract 261 from 278, we get 17.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 29

On to step 5:
29 can be fit into 177 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 896.0
If we take 174 away from 177, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 30 / 29

On to step 6:
29 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8961.0
Subtracting 29 from 30 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
10 divided by 29 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8961.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 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 8:
If we divide 100 by 29, we get 3 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8961.03
If we subtract 87 from 100, we get 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 9:
130 divided by 29 is 4 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8961.034
Deduct 116 from 130 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
29 can be fit into 140 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8961.0344
If we subtract 116 from 140, 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 8961.0344 with a balance of 0.00024.
