Let's divide 255211 by 28
We want to divide 255211 by 28.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 28

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 28, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 255 / 28

Step 3:
If we divide 255 by 28, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 252 from 255 and we're left with 3.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 32 / 28

Moving on to step 4:
The number 28 fits into 32 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 91.0
If we take 28 away from 32, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 41 / 28

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 41 by 28, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 911.0
Subtract 28 from 41 to get 13.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 131 / 28

Advancing to step 6:
28 goes into 131 4 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9114.0
If we subtract 112 from 131, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
190 divided by 28 is 6 with a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9114.6
Subtracting 168 from 190 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
220 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9114.67
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 196 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 9:
28 goes into 240 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9114.678
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 28, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9114.6785
If we subtract 140 from 160, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 28, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9114.67857
If we take 196 away from 200, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9114.678571
Deduct 28 from 40 and we're left with 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 13:
120 divided by 28 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9114.6785714
Subtracting 112 from 120 leaves us 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 14:
The number 28 fits into 80 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9114.67857142
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 9114.67857142 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
