261604 ÷ 4 
Our goal is to divide 261604 by 4.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 4

Step 2:
4 goes into 26 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 24 from 26, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 4

Step 3:
When dividing 21 by 4, we get 5 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65.0
If we subtract 20 from 21, we get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 4

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 16 by 4, we get 4 with a remainder of 0.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 654.0
Subtract 16 from 16 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 4

Going ahead to step 5:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6540.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 4 / 4

Moving on to step 6:
The number 4 fits into 4 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65401.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65401.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 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 8:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 65401.0
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.

Our division results in 65401.0 with a remaining 0.0.
