We divide 35243781 by 261
We want to divide 35243781 by 261.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 261 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 261

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 35 by 261, we get 0 and a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 35 to get 35.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 352 / 261

On to step 3:
261 can be fit into 352 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 91.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 261 from 352 to get 91.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 91, then carry on: 914 / 261

Advancing to step 4:
914 divided by 261 is 3 with a remainder of 131.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtracting 783 from 914 leaves us with 131.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 131, then repeat: 1313 / 261

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 261 fits into 1313 5 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 135.0
Deduct 1305 from 1313 and we're left with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 261

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 87 by 261, we get 0 with a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1350.0
Subtracting 0 from 87 leaves us with 87.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 87, then repeat: 878 / 261

On to step 7:
If we divide 878 by 261, we get 3 and a remainder of 95.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13503.0
Deduct 783 from 878 and we're left with 95.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 95 and continue with: 951 / 261

Moving on to step 8:
261 can be fit into 951 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 168.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 135033.0
The remainder is 168 after subtracting 783 from 951.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
261 goes into 1680 6 times with a remainder of 114.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 135033.6
Subtracting 1566 from 1680 leaves us with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
261 can be fit into 1140 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 96.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 135033.64
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 1044 from 1140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
261 can be fit into 960 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 177.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 135033.643
The remainder is 177 after subtracting 783 from 960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1770, and continue the process.

Step 12:
1770 divided by 261 is 6 with a remainder of 204.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 135033.6436
The remainder is 204 after subtracting 1566 from 1770.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 261 fits into 2040 7 times, leaving a remainder of 213.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 135033.64367
If we take 1827 away from 2040, we end up with 213.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2130, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 2130 by 261, we get 8 with a remainder of 42.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 135033.643678
Subtract 2088 from 2130 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
420 divided by 261 is 1 with a remainder of 159.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 135033.6436781
If we take 261 away from 420, we end up with 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1590, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 1590 by 261, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 135033.64367816
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 1566 from 1590.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 135033.64367816 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
