294257 divided by 71 
We want to divide 294257 by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 71

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 71 fits into 29 0 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 29 leaves us with 29.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 294 / 71

Step 3:
The number 71 fits into 294 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 284 from 294 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 102 / 71

On to step 4:
71 goes into 102 1 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 71 from 102.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 315 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 315 by 71, we get 4 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 414.0
Deduct 284 from 315 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 71

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 317 by 71, we get 4 and a remainder of 33.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4144.0
Subtract 284 from 317 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
71 can be fit into 330 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4144.4
Subtract 284 from 330 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
460 divided by 71 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4144.46
Subtracting 426 from 460 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
71 can be fit into 340 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4144.464
Deduct 284 from 340 and we're left with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 560 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 63.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4144.4647
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 497 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 630 by 71, we get 8 with a remainder of 62.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4144.46478
If we subtract 568 from 630, we get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
71 goes into 620 8 times with a remainder of 52.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4144.464788
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 568 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The final result is 4144.464788 with a remainder of 5.2e-06.
