We look at the division of 204257 by 5 
Our goal is to divide 204257 by 5.

Step 1:
5 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 5

Let's proceed to step 2:
5 goes into 20 4 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 20 from 20.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 4 / 5

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 4 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 42 by 5, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 408.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 40 from 42.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 5

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 25 by 5, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4085.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 25 from 25.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 7 / 5

Advancing to step 6:
7 divided by 5 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40851.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 5 from 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 5, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40851.4
If we take 20 away from 20, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
5 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40851.4
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
5 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40851.4
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 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 40851.4 with a remaining 0.0.
