We look at the division of 278440 by 29 
Let's see how many times 29 fits into 278440.

Going ahead to step 1:
29 goes into 2 0 times with 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.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 29

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 29, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 29

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 278 by 29, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 261 away from 278, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 174 / 29

Going ahead to step 4:
29 goes into 174 6 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 96.0
Deduct 174 from 174 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 29

Moving on to step 5:
4 divided by 29 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 960.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 29

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 40 by 29, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9601.0
Deduct 29 from 40 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 29, we get 3 and a remainder of 23.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9601.3
Subtracting 87 from 110 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 29 fits into 230 7 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9601.37
If we subtract 203 from 230, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
270 divided by 29 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9601.379
If we subtract 261 from 270, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
90 divided by 29 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9601.3793
Subtract 87 from 90 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 29 fits into 30 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9601.37931
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
29 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9601.37931
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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 29 fits into 100 3 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9601.3793103
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 87 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 29 fits into 130 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9601.37931034
Subtract 116 from 130 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 9601.37931034, and the remainder is 1.4e-08.
