We look at the division of 261883 by 81 
Let's see how many times 81 fits into 261883.

Moving on to step 1:
81 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 81

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 81, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 261 / 81

On to step 3:
81 goes into 261 3 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 243 from 261 leaves us with 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 81

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 81 fits into 188 2 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 162 from 188, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 268 / 81

Going ahead to step 5:
268 divided by 81 is 3 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 323.0
If we subtract 243 from 268, we get 25.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 253 / 81

On to step 6:
The number 81 fits into 253 3 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3233.0
Subtract 243 from 253 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 81, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3233.1
If we take 81 away from 100, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
190 divided by 81 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3233.12
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 162 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 280 by 81, we get 3 and a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3233.123
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 243 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
370 divided by 81 is 4 with a remainder of 46.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3233.1234
Subtracting 324 from 370 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
81 goes into 460 5 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3233.12345
Subtracting 405 from 460 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 550 by 81, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3233.123456
If we subtract 486 from 550, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 81, we get 7 and a remainder of 73.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3233.1234567
If we take 567 away from 640, we end up with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 81 fits into 730 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3233.12345679
If we subtract 729 from 730, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3233.12345679 with a balance of 1e-09.
