We're dividing 259947 by 16 
We're looking to find how many times 16 goes into 259947.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 16

Advancing to step 2:
16 goes into 25 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 16 from 25 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 16

Moving on to step 3:
16 goes into 99 6 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 96 from 99.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 16

Let's proceed to step 4:
16 can be fit into 39 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 162.0
If we subtract 32 from 39, we get 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 16

Advancing to step 5:
74 divided by 16 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1624.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 64 from 74.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 16

On to step 6:
The number 16 fits into 107 6 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16246.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 96 from 107.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
16 can be fit into 110 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16246.6
If we take 96 away from 110, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
140 divided by 16 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 16246.68
If we subtract 128 from 140, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
16 goes into 120 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16246.687
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16246.6875
Subtract 80 from 80 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 0 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16246.6875
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 12:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 16246.6875
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 16246.6875, and the remainder is 0.0.
