259486 divided by 86 
We want to divide 259486 by 86.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 86, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 86

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 86, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 259 / 86

Advancing to step 3:
86 can be fit into 259 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 258 from 259 to get 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 86

Let's proceed to step 4:
86 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 148 / 86

Step 5:
148 divided by 86 is 1 with a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 301.0
If we take 86 away from 148, we end up with 62.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 626 / 86

Moving on to step 6:
The number 86 fits into 626 7 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3017.0
Subtract 602 from 626 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 240 by 86, we get 2 with a remainder of 68.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3017.2
Deduct 172 from 240 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
86 can be fit into 680 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3017.27
If we subtract 602 from 680, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 780 by 86, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3017.279
Subtracting 774 from 780 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
86 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3017.279
If we take 0 away from 60, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 86 fits into 600 6 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3017.27906
Subtracting 516 from 600 leaves us with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
840 divided by 86 is 9 with a remainder of 66.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3017.279069
If we take 774 away from 840, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
86 can be fit into 660 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3017.2790697
If we take 602 away from 660, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
86 can be fit into 580 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3017.27906976
Deduct 516 from 580 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3017.27906976 with a balance of 6.4e-08.
