We're dividing 2859741 by 451 
Our goal is to divide 2859741 by 451.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 451, we get 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.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 451

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 28 by 451, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 285 / 451

Moving on to step 3:
The number 451 fits into 285 0 times, leaving a remainder of 285.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 285, we end up with 285.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 285 and continue with: 2859 / 451

Moving on to step 4:
2859 divided by 451 is 6 with a remainder of 153.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 2706 away from 2859, we end up with 153.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 153 and repeat the process: 1537 / 451

Step 5:
The number 451 fits into 1537 3 times, leaving a remainder of 184.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
Subtracting 1353 from 1537 leaves us with 184.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 184 and repeat the process: 1844 / 451

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 1844 by 451, we get 4 and a remainder of 40.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 634.0
Deduct 1804 from 1844 and we're left with 40.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 401 / 451

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 401 by 451, we get 0 with a remainder of 401.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6340.0
Subtracting 0 from 401 leaves us with 401.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4010, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
451 can be fit into 4010 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 402.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6340.8
If we subtract 3608 from 4010, we get 402.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4020, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
451 can be fit into 4020 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 412.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6340.88
The remainder is 412 after subtracting 3608 from 4020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6340.88, with a leftover of 0.412.
