14979877 divided by 261 
We want to figure out the number of times 14979877 can be divided by 261.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 261 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 261

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 261, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 149 / 261

On to step 3:
261 goes into 149 0 times with a remainder of 149.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 149, we end up with 149.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 149 and continue: 1497 / 261

Going ahead to step 4:
261 can be fit into 1497 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 192.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 1305 from 1497 to get 192.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 192 and continue with: 1929 / 261

Moving on to step 5:
1929 divided by 261 is 7 with a remainder of 102.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 1827 from 1929 to get 102.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 102, then repeat: 1028 / 261

Step 6:
The number 261 fits into 1028 3 times, leaving a remainder of 245.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.0
Subtracting 783 from 1028 leaves us with 245.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 245, then repeat: 2457 / 261

On to step 7:
The number 261 fits into 2457 9 times, leaving a remainder of 108.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5739.0
Deduct 2349 from 2457 and we're left with 108.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 108 and continue with: 1087 / 261

Moving on to step 8:
1087 divided by 261 is 4 with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 57394.0
Subtracting 1044 from 1087 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 261 fits into 430 1 times, leaving a remainder of 169.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 57394.1
If we take 261 away from 430, we end up with 169.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1690, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 1690 by 261, we get 6 and a remainder of 124.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57394.16
The remainder is 124 after subtracting 1566 from 1690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 261 fits into 1240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 196.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57394.164
Subtracting 1044 from 1240 leaves us with 196.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 1960 by 261, we get 7 and a remainder of 133.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57394.1647
Subtracting 1827 from 1960 leaves us with 133.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1330, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
261 can be fit into 1330 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57394.16475
Subtracting 1305 from 1330 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 250 by 261, we get 0 with a remainder of 250.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57394.16475
If we subtract 0 from 250, we get 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 2500 by 261, we get 9 with a remainder of 151.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57394.1647509
The remainder is 151 after subtracting 2349 from 2500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1510, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
261 goes into 1510 5 times with a remainder of 205.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 57394.16475095
If we take 1305 away from 1510, we end up with 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

Our division results in 57394.16475095 with a remaining 2.05e-07.
