We look at the division of 278532 by 2 
Let's see how many times 2 fits into 278532.

Advancing to step 1:
2 can be fit into 2 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 2 from 2 leaves us with 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 7 by 2, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 6 from 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 2

Let's proceed to step 3:
2 can be fit into 18 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 139.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 18 from 18.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 5 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
2 goes into 5 2 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1392.0
If we take 4 away from 5, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 13 / 2

On to step 5:
2 goes into 13 6 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13926.0
Deduct 12 from 13 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 2

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 12 by 2, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 139266.0
Deduct 12 from 12 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 139266.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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:
2 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 139266.0
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.

The quotient of the division is 139266.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
