We look at the division of 15296048 by 257 
We want to divide 15296048 by 257.

Going ahead to step 1:
257 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 257

Step 2:
The number 257 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 152 / 257

Moving on to step 3:
257 can be fit into 152 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 152.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 152 leaves us with 152.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 152, then repeat: 1529 / 257

Going ahead to step 4:
1529 divided by 257 is 5 with a remainder of 244.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 1285 from 1529 and we're left with 244.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 244, then repeat: 2446 / 257

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 2446 by 257, we get 9 with a remainder of 133.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we subtract 2313 from 2446, we get 133.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 133 and continue: 1330 / 257

Step 6:
1330 divided by 257 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 595.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 1285 from 1330.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 454 / 257

Step 7:
The number 257 fits into 454 1 times, leaving a remainder of 197.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5951.0
Deduct 257 from 454 and we're left with 197.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 197 and repeat the process: 1978 / 257

Let's proceed to step 8:
257 can be fit into 1978 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 179.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59517.0
Subtract 1799 from 1978 to get 179.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1790, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 257 fits into 1790 6 times, leaving a remainder of 248.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59517.6
If we subtract 1542 from 1790, we get 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2480, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
2480 divided by 257 is 9 with a remainder of 167.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59517.69
If we take 2313 away from 2480, we end up with 167.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
1670 divided by 257 is 6 with a remainder of 128.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 59517.696
If we take 1542 away from 1670, we end up with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 1280 by 257, we get 4 and a remainder of 252.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59517.6964
If we subtract 1028 from 1280, we get 252.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 2520 by 257, we get 9 with a remainder of 207.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59517.69649
Deduct 2313 from 2520 and we're left with 207.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2070, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 2070 by 257, we get 8 with a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59517.696498
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 2056 from 2070.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
140 divided by 257 is 0 with a remainder of 140.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59517.696498
Subtract 0 from 140 to get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
1400 divided by 257 is 5 with a remainder of 115.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59517.69649805
If we take 1285 away from 1400, we end up with 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 59517.69649805 with a remaining 1.15e-07.
