We divide 255977 by 57
We want to divide 255977 by 57.

On to step 1:
57 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 57

On to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 57, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 255 / 57

On to step 3:
57 can be fit into 255 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 228 from 255 to get 27.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 57

Let's proceed to step 4:
57 can be fit into 279 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
Deduct 228 from 279 and we're left with 51.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 517 / 57

Step 5:
57 can be fit into 517 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 449.0
Deduct 513 from 517 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 57

Let's proceed to step 6:
47 divided by 57 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4490.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 57 fits into 470 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4490.8
If we take 456 away from 470, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 57 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4490.82
Deduct 114 from 140 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 260 by 57, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4490.824
If we take 228 away from 260, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 57 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4490.8245
Subtracting 285 from 320 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
57 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4490.82456
If we take 342 away from 350, 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.

Advancing to step 12:
57 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4490.824561
If we subtract 57 from 80, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 230 by 57, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4490.8245614
Subtracting 228 from 230 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 20 by 57, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4490.8245614
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

The final result is 4490.8245614 with a remainder of 2e-08.
