288491 ÷ 6 
Our goal is to divide 288491 by 6.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 6 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 6

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 6, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 24 from 28 to get 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 6

Advancing to step 3:
6 goes into 48 8 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtract 48 from 48 to get 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 6

Let's proceed to step 4:
6 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 480.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 6

Step 5:
6 can be fit into 49 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4808.0
Deduct 48 from 49 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 6

Going ahead to step 6:
11 divided by 6 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 48081.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 6 from 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 6 fits into 50 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48081.8
If we subtract 48 from 50, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
6 can be fit into 20 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48081.83
If we take 18 away from 20, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 20 by 6, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48081.833
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 48081.833, and the remainder is 0.0002.
