We divide 262261 by 79
We want to figure out the number of times 262261 can be divided by 79.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 79, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 79

On to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 79, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 262 / 79

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 262 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 25.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 237 from 262 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 252 / 79

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 252 by 79, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 33.0
If we subtract 237 from 252, we get 15.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 156 / 79

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 156 by 79, we get 1 and a remainder of 77.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 331.0
If we subtract 79 from 156, we get 77.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 77 and repeat the process: 771 / 79

Advancing to step 6:
The number 79 fits into 771 9 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3319.0
Subtracting 711 from 771 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 600 by 79, we get 7 and a remainder of 47.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3319.7
If we subtract 553 from 600, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 470 by 79, we get 5 and a remainder of 75.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3319.75
Subtract 395 from 470 to get 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 750 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3319.759
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 711 from 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 390 by 79, we get 4 and a remainder of 74.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3319.7594
Subtract 316 from 390 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 740 by 79, we get 9 with a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3319.75949
Subtracting 711 from 740 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 12:
290 divided by 79 is 3 with a remainder of 53.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3319.759493
Deduct 237 from 290 and we're left with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
530 divided by 79 is 6 with a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3319.7594936
Deduct 474 from 530 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
560 divided by 79 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3319.75949367
Deduct 553 from 560 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3319.75949367 with a balance of 7e-09.
