Let's divide 259286 by 28
We want to divide 259286 by 28.

On to step 1:
28 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 28

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 28 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 259 / 28

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 259 by 28, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 252 from 259 to get 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 28

On to step 4:
If we divide 72 by 28, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 92.0
Subtract 56 from 72 to get 16.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 168 / 28

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 28 fits into 168 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 926.0
If we subtract 168 from 168, we get 0.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 28

Step 6:
When dividing 6 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9260.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 60 by 28, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9260.2
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 56 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
28 can be fit into 40 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9260.21
If we subtract 28 from 40, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
28 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9260.214
If we subtract 112 from 120, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
28 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9260.2142
Deduct 56 from 80 and we're left 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.

Step 11:
240 divided by 28 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9260.21428
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
160 divided by 28 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9260.214285
If we subtract 140 from 160, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 28, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9260.2142857
If we subtract 196 from 200, 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
40 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9260.21428571
If we subtract 28 from 40, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9260.21428571 and a remainder of 1.2e-08.
