We divide 256255 by 2
Our goal is to divide 256255 by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 goes into 2 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 5 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 5 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 4 from 5 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 2

On to step 3:
The number 2 fits into 16 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128.0
If we subtract 16 from 16, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 2 / 2

On to step 4:
When dividing 2 by 2, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1281.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 5 / 2

Step 5:
2 goes into 5 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12812.0
Subtract 4 from 5 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 2

On to step 6:
2 can be fit into 15 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128127.0
If we subtract 14 from 15, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
2 goes into 10 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 128127.5
Subtract 10 from 10 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 128127.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 128127.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 128127.5 with a remaining 0.0.
