We divide 72246058 by 260
We want to divide 72246058 by 260.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 260, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 260

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 260, we get 0 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 722 / 260

Advancing to step 3:
260 goes into 722 2 times with a remainder of 202.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 520 from 722 to get 202.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 202, then carry on: 2024 / 260

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 260 fits into 2024 7 times, leaving a remainder of 204.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 1820 away from 2024, we end up with 204.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 204 and repeat the process: 2046 / 260

Moving on to step 5:
2046 divided by 260 is 7 with a remainder of 226.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 277.0
If we take 1820 away from 2046, we end up with 226.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 226, then carry on: 2260 / 260

Advancing to step 6:
2260 divided by 260 is 8 with a remainder of 180.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2778.0
Subtract 2080 from 2260 to get 180.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 180 and repeat the process: 1805 / 260

Let's proceed to step 7:
260 goes into 1805 6 times with a remainder of 245.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27786.0
Deduct 1560 from 1805 and we're left with 245.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 245 and continue with: 2458 / 260

Step 8:
2458 divided by 260 is 9 with a remainder of 118.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 277869.0
Subtract 2340 from 2458 to get 118.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 1180 by 260, we get 4 and a remainder of 140.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 277869.4
Deduct 1040 from 1180 and we're left with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 1400 by 260, we get 5 and a remainder of 100.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 277869.45
If we take 1300 away from 1400, we end up with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 260 fits into 1000 3 times, leaving a remainder of 220.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 277869.453
Subtract 780 from 1000 to get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 2200 by 260, we get 8 and a remainder of 120.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 277869.4538
If we take 2080 away from 2200, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
260 can be fit into 1200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 160.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 277869.45384
Deduct 1040 from 1200 and we're left with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
1600 divided by 260 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 277869.453846
Subtract 1560 from 1600 to 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.

Going ahead to step 15:
400 divided by 260 is 1 with a remainder of 140.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 277869.4538461
The remainder is 140 after subtracting 260 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 1400 by 260, we get 5 and a remainder of 100.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 277869.45384615
Subtract 1300 from 1400 to get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Our division results in 277869.45384615 with a remaining 1e-07.
