Let's divide 254737 by 82
Our goal is to divide 254737 by 82.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 82

Step 2:
The number 82 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 254 / 82

Moving on to step 3:
82 can be fit into 254 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 246 from 254 and we're left with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 82

Advancing to step 4:
The number 82 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 82 from 87 to get 5.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 53 / 82

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 53 by 82, we get 0 and a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 310.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 0 from 53.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 53 and continue with: 537 / 82

Step 6:
When dividing 537 by 82, we get 6 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3106.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 492 from 537.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 450 by 82, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3106.5
Subtract 410 from 450 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 400 by 82, we get 4 and a remainder of 72.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3106.54
Deduct 328 from 400 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 82 fits into 720 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3106.548
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 656 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 82 fits into 640 7 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3106.5487
If we take 574 away from 640, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 660 by 82, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3106.54878
If we subtract 656 from 660, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
82 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3106.54878
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 400 by 82, we get 4 with a remainder of 72.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3106.5487804
Subtract 328 from 400 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
720 divided by 82 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3106.54878048
Subtract 656 from 720 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3106.54878048 with a remaining 6.4e-08.
