Let's divide 279668 by 65
We want to divide 279668 by 65.

Let's proceed to step 1:
65 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 (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 65

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 27 by 65, we get 0 with a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 279 / 65

Step 3:
The number 65 fits into 279 4 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 260 from 279, we get 19.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 196 / 65

Advancing to step 4:
The number 65 fits into 196 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we subtract 195 from 196, we get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 65

Step 5:
If we divide 16 by 65, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 430.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 0 from 16.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 168 / 65

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 168 by 65, we get 2 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4302.0
Deduct 130 from 168 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 380 by 65, we get 5 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4302.5
If we subtract 325 from 380, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
65 can be fit into 550 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4302.58
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 520 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 300 by 65, we get 4 with a remainder of 40.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4302.584
If we take 260 away from 300, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 65, we get 6 with a remainder of 10.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4302.5846
Subtract 390 from 400 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 65 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4302.58461
Deduct 65 from 100 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 65 fits into 350 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4302.584615
If we subtract 325 from 350, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 13:
65 goes into 250 3 times with a remainder of 55.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4302.5846153
If we take 195 away from 250, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 550 by 65, we get 8 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4302.58461538
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 520 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4302.58461538, and the remainder is 3e-08.
