260838 ÷ 70 
We want to figure out the number of times 260838 can be divided by 70.

Moving on to step 1:
70 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 70

Advancing to step 2:
The number 70 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 260 / 70

Step 3:
When dividing 260 by 70, we get 3 with a remainder of 50.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 210 from 260 to get 50.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 508 / 70

Moving on to step 4:
508 divided by 70 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 490 from 508 leaves us with 18.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 183 / 70

Advancing to step 5:
The number 70 fits into 183 2 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 372.0
Subtract 140 from 183 to get 43.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 438 / 70

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 438 by 70, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3726.0
If we take 420 away from 438, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
70 goes into 180 2 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3726.2
Subtract 140 from 180 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
70 can be fit into 400 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3726.25
Subtract 350 from 400 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
70 goes into 500 7 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3726.257
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 490 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
100 divided by 70 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3726.2571
Deduct 70 from 100 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 300 by 70, we get 4 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3726.25714
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
70 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 60.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3726.257142
Subtracting 140 from 200 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
600 divided by 70 is 8 with a remainder of 40.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3726.2571428
Subtract 560 from 600 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 70 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3726.25714285
If we subtract 350 from 400, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3726.25714285 with a balance of 5e-08.
