Let's divide 254957 by 6
Our goal is to divide 254957 by 6.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 6 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 6

Advancing to step 2:
The number 6 fits into 25 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 24 from 25 to get 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 6

Step 3:
6 can be fit into 14 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Deduct 12 from 14 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 6

Advancing to step 4:
The number 6 fits into 29 4 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 424.0
Deduct 24 from 29 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 6

Let's proceed to step 5:
55 divided by 6 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4249.0
If we subtract 54 from 55, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 6

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 6 fits into 17 2 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42492.0
If we take 12 away from 17, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
50 divided by 6 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 42492.8
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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 6, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42492.83
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
20 divided by 6 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 42492.833
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 final result is 42492.833 with a remainder of 0.0002.
