We're dividing 404489 by 28 
We want to figure out the number of times 404489 can be divided by 28.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 28 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 28

On to step 2:
The number 28 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 28 from 40 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 124 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
28 goes into 124 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 112 from 124 to get 12.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 124 / 28

Step 4:
28 goes into 124 4 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 144.0
Deduct 112 from 124 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 28

Going ahead to step 5:
28 goes into 128 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1444.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 112 from 128.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 28

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 169 by 28, we get 6 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14446.0
Subtract 168 from 169 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 28 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14446.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 100 by 28, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14446.03
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
28 goes into 160 5 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14446.035
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 28, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14446.0357
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
40 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14446.03571
Subtract 28 from 40 to 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 120 by 28, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14446.035714
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.

On to step 13:
28 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14446.0357142
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 14:
28 can be fit into 240 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14446.03571428
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 14446.03571428 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
