257524 divided by 2 
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 257524.

Step 1:
2 goes into 2 1 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 5 / 2

On to step 2:
If we divide 5 by 2, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 4 from 5 to get 1.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 17 / 2

Moving on to step 3:
2 can be fit into 17 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 128.0
If we subtract 16 from 17, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 2

Let's proceed to step 4:
2 can be fit into 15 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1287.0
Subtract 14 from 15 to get 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 2

Going ahead to step 5:
12 divided by 2 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12876.0
Subtracting 12 from 12 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 2

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 4 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 128762.0
Subtracting 4 from 4 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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 128762.0
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.

On to step 8:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128762.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 128762.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
