We divide 255857 by 13
We want to divide 255857 by 13.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 13, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 13

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 13, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 13 away from 25, we end up with 12.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 125 / 13

On to step 3:
13 can be fit into 125 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 117 from 125 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 13

On to step 4:
13 can be fit into 88 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 196.0
If we subtract 78 from 88, we get 10.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 105 / 13

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 105 by 13, we get 8 and a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1968.0
Subtracting 104 from 105 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 13

Step 6:
13 can be fit into 17 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19681.0
If we subtract 13 from 17, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 40 by 13, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19681.3
Subtract 39 from 40 to 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 13, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19681.3
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 9:
13 can be fit into 100 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19681.307
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 91 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 10:
13 goes into 90 6 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19681.3076
If we take 78 away from 90, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 13 fits into 120 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19681.30769
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 117 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
13 can be fit into 30 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19681.307692
If we subtract 26 from 30, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 13 fits into 40 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19681.3076923
If we subtract 39 from 40, 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.

On to step 14:
13 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19681.3076923
If we subtract 0 from 10, we 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.

The quotient of the division is 19681.3076923, and the remainder is 1e-08.
