208969 ÷ 28 
We want to figure out the number of times 208969 can be divided by 28.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 28 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 28

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 20 by 28, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 208 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 28 fits into 208 7 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 196 from 208.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 129 / 28

Advancing to step 4:
The number 28 fits into 129 4 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 74.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 112 from 129.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 176 / 28

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 176 by 28, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 746.0
Subtract 168 from 176 to get 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 28

Advancing to step 6:
The number 28 fits into 89 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 7463.0
Subtract 84 from 89 to get 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 7:
If we divide 50 by 28, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7463.1
If we take 28 away from 50, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 28, we get 7 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7463.17
Deduct 196 from 220 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 28 fits into 240 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7463.178
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
28 goes into 160 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7463.1785
Subtracting 140 from 160 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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 28, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7463.17857
Subtract 196 from 200 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 28 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7463.178571
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 28 fits into 120 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7463.1785714
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left 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.

Step 14:
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: 7463.17857142
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 7463.17857142 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
