Let's divide 256595 by 86
We want to divide 256595 by 86.

On to step 1:
86 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 86

Advancing to step 2:
The number 86 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 256 / 86

Advancing to step 3:
256 divided by 86 is 2 with a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 172 away from 256, we end up with 84.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 84 and repeat the process: 845 / 86

On to step 4:
86 can be fit into 845 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 71.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 774 from 845 leaves us with 71.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 71 and continue: 719 / 86

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 719 by 86, we get 8 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 298.0
If we take 688 away from 719, we end up with 31.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 315 / 86

Step 6:
If we divide 315 by 86, we get 3 and a remainder of 57.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2983.0
If we subtract 258 from 315, we get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
86 can be fit into 570 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2983.6
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 516 from 570.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 86 fits into 540 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2983.66
If we subtract 516 from 540, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2983.66 with a remaining 0.024.
