259473 ÷ 89 
We want to divide 259473 by 89.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 89, 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.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 89

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 259 / 89

Step 3:
If we divide 259 by 89, we get 2 and a remainder of 81.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 178 from 259 leaves us with 81.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 81, then repeat: 814 / 89

On to step 4:
When dividing 814 by 89, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we subtract 801 from 814, we get 13.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 137 / 89

On to step 5:
89 goes into 137 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 291.0
If we subtract 89 from 137, we get 48.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 483 / 89

Step 6:
89 goes into 483 5 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2915.0
Deduct 445 from 483 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
380 divided by 89 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2915.4
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 356 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
89 can be fit into 240 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2915.42
Subtract 178 from 240 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
620 divided by 89 is 6 with a remainder of 86.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2915.426
Subtracting 534 from 620 leaves us with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
89 goes into 860 9 times with a remainder of 59.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2915.4269
Subtracting 801 from 860 leaves us with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 89 fits into 590 6 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2915.42696
Deduct 534 from 590 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.

Advancing to step 12:
89 can be fit into 560 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2915.426966
Deduct 534 from 560 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The final result is 2915.426966 with a remainder of 2.6e-06.
