262235 divided by 71 
Our goal is to divide 262235 by 71.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 71

Let's proceed to step 2:
71 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 262 / 71

Going ahead to step 3:
71 goes into 262 3 times with a remainder of 49.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 213 from 262.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 492 / 71

Advancing to step 4:
The number 71 fits into 492 6 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 426 from 492.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 66, then carry on: 663 / 71

Moving on to step 5:
The number 71 fits into 663 9 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 369.0
Deduct 639 from 663 and we're left with 24.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 245 / 71

Advancing to step 6:
71 can be fit into 245 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3693.0
If we subtract 213 from 245, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
71 can be fit into 320 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3693.4
If we take 284 away from 320, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 360 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3693.45
If we take 355 away from 360, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 71 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3693.45
Subtract 0 from 50 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 10:
The number 71 fits into 500 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3693.4507
If we subtract 497 from 500, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
30 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3693.4507
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
71 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3693.450704
If we take 284 away from 300, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 71, we get 2 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3693.4507042
Subtract 142 from 160 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 180 by 71, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3693.45070422
If we take 142 away from 180, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3693.45070422 with a balance of 3.8e-08.
