Let's divide 255214 by 43
We want to divide 255214 by 43.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 43 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 43

On to step 2:
25 divided by 43 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 255 / 43

Step 3:
The number 43 fits into 255 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 215 from 255 and we're left with 40.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 402 / 43

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 43 fits into 402 9 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 387 from 402 leaves us with 15.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 151 / 43

On to step 5:
When dividing 151 by 43, we get 3 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 593.0
Subtracting 129 from 151 leaves us with 22.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 224 / 43

Step 6:
The number 43 fits into 224 5 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5935.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 215 from 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 43, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5935.2
Subtract 86 from 90 to 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.

Advancing to step 8:
43 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5935.2
If we subtract 0 from 40, 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
43 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5935.209
Deduct 387 from 400 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
The number 43 fits into 130 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5935.2093
If we subtract 129 from 130, 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 10 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5935.2093
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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 12:
If we divide 100 by 43, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5935.209302
If we subtract 86 from 100, we 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 140 by 43, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5935.2093023
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 129 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 43 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5935.20930232
Subtracting 86 from 110 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 5935.20930232 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
