256544 ÷ 43 
We're looking to find how many times 43 goes into 256544.

Step 1:
43 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 43

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 256 / 43

Advancing to step 3:
43 goes into 256 5 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 215 from 256 leaves us with 41.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 415 / 43

Going ahead to step 4:
43 goes into 415 9 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 387 away from 415, we end up with 28.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 284 / 43

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 284 by 43, we get 6 and a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 596.0
If we take 258 away from 284, we end up with 26.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 264 / 43

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 264 by 43, we get 6 with a remainder of 6.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5966.0
Subtracting 258 from 264 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
43 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5966.1
Deduct 43 from 60 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
43 can be fit into 170 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5966.13
If we take 129 away from 170, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
410 divided by 43 is 9 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5966.139
Deduct 387 from 410 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
43 can be fit into 230 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5966.1395
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 215 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 43 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5966.13953
If we subtract 129 from 150, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 12:
210 divided by 43 is 4 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5966.139534
Subtracting 172 from 210 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 380 by 43, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5966.1395348
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 344 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 43 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5966.13953488
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 344 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5966.13953488 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
