Let's divide 11737981 by 257
Let's see how many times 257 fits into 11737981.

Advancing to step 1:
257 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 257

Step 2:
257 can be fit into 11 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 117 / 257

Let's proceed to step 3:
117 divided by 257 is 0 with a remainder of 117.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 117 and we're left with 117.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 117 and continue with: 1173 / 257

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 257 fits into 1173 4 times, leaving a remainder of 145.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 1028 from 1173 and we're left with 145.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 145 and continue with: 1457 / 257

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1457 by 257, we get 5 with a remainder of 172.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 45.0
Subtracting 1285 from 1457 leaves us with 172.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 172, then repeat: 1729 / 257

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 1729 by 257, we get 6 and a remainder of 187.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 456.0
The remainder is 187 after subtracting 1542 from 1729.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 187, then repeat: 1878 / 257

Advancing to step 7:
257 goes into 1878 7 times with a remainder of 79.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4567.0
Subtracting 1799 from 1878 leaves us with 79.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 79 and repeat the process: 791 / 257

Let's proceed to step 8:
791 divided by 257 is 3 with a remainder of 20.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 45673.0
If we take 771 away from 791, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
257 goes into 200 0 times with a remainder of 200.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 45673.0
If we take 0 away from 200, we end up with 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 2000 by 257, we get 7 and a remainder of 201.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 45673.07
Subtracting 1799 from 2000 leaves us with 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2010, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 2010 by 257, we get 7 with a remainder of 211.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 45673.077
Deduct 1799 from 2010 and we're left with 211.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2110, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 45673.077, with a leftover of 0.0211.
