We're dividing 257008 by 43 
Our goal is to divide 257008 by 43.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 43 fits into 2 0 times, leaving 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.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 43

Step 2:
The number 43 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 257 / 43

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 43 fits into 257 5 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 215 away from 257, we end up with 42.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 420 / 43

Let's proceed to step 4:
43 goes into 420 9 times with a remainder of 33.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Deduct 387 from 420 and we're left with 33.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 330 / 43

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 330 by 43, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 597.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 301 from 330.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 298 / 43

Moving on to step 6:
43 goes into 298 6 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5976.0
If we subtract 258 from 298, we 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 7:
When dividing 400 by 43, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5976.9
If we take 387 away from 400, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 130 by 43, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5976.93
Subtract 129 from 130 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
10 divided by 43 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5976.93
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
43 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5976.9302
Subtract 86 from 100 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 43, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5976.93023
If we take 129 away from 140, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 110 by 43, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5976.930232
If we take 86 away from 110, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
43 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5976.9302325
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 215 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 43 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5976.93023255
Deduct 215 from 250 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5976.93023255 with a remaining 3.5e-08.
