We divide 5178841 by 255
We want to figure out the number of times 5178841 can be divided by 255.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 255 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 51 / 255

On to step 2:
51 divided by 255 is 0 with a remainder of 51.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 51 to get 51.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 51, then carry on: 517 / 255

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 517 by 255, we get 2 with a remainder of 7.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 510 from 517 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 255

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 78 by 255, we get 0 with a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 78, we end up with 78.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 78 and continue with: 788 / 255

On to step 5:
255 goes into 788 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 203.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 765 from 788.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 234 / 255

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 234 by 255, we get 0 with a remainder of 234.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2030.0
If we take 0 away from 234, we end up with 234.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 234, then carry on: 2341 / 255

On to step 7:
2341 divided by 255 is 9 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20309.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 2295 from 2341.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 255 fits into 460 1 times, leaving a remainder of 205.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20309.1
Subtracting 255 from 460 leaves us with 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
255 can be fit into 2050 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 20309.18
If we subtract 2040 from 2050, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
255 goes into 100 0 times with a remainder of 100.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20309.18
If we take 0 away from 100, we end up with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
1000 divided by 255 is 3 with a remainder of 235.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20309.1803
Deduct 765 from 1000 and we're left with 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
255 can be fit into 2350 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20309.18039
Subtracting 2295 from 2350 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 255 fits into 550 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20309.180392
Subtracting 510 from 550 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
255 goes into 400 1 times with a remainder of 145.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20309.1803921
Deduct 255 from 400 and we're left with 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 1450 by 255, we get 5 with a remainder of 175.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20309.18039215
Deduct 1275 from 1450 and we're left with 175.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1750, and continue the process.

The final result is 20309.18039215 with a remainder of 1.75e-07.
