Let's divide 2748871 by 256
We want to figure out the number of times 2748871 can be divided by 256.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 256 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 256

Step 2:
256 goes into 27 0 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 274 / 256

Step 3:
256 goes into 274 1 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 256 from 274.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 256

Going ahead to step 4:
256 can be fit into 188 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 188.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 188 and we're left with 188.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 188, then repeat: 1888 / 256

Moving on to step 5:
256 can be fit into 1888 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 96.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107.0
Deduct 1792 from 1888 and we're left with 96.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 96 and repeat the process: 967 / 256

Going ahead to step 6:
256 can be fit into 967 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 199.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1073.0
Subtracting 768 from 967 leaves us with 199.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 199, then repeat: 1991 / 256

On to step 7:
If we divide 1991 by 256, we get 7 and a remainder of 199.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10737.0
Subtracting 1792 from 1991 leaves us with 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1990, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
1990 divided by 256 is 7 with a remainder of 198.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10737.7
If we take 1792 away from 1990, we end up with 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Step 9:
256 goes into 1980 7 times with a remainder of 188.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10737.77
Deduct 1792 from 1980 and we're left with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 10737.77, and the remainder is 0.188.
