278605 ÷ 89 
We want to divide 278605 by 89.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 89

Step 2:
When dividing 27 by 89, we get 0 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 27, we get 27.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 278 / 89

Advancing to step 3:
89 goes into 278 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 267 from 278 and we're left with 11.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 116 / 89

Advancing to step 4:
116 divided by 89 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31.0
Deduct 89 from 116 and we're left with 27.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 270 / 89

On to step 5:
When dividing 270 by 89, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 313.0
Subtract 267 from 270 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 89

Step 6:
89 goes into 35 0 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3130.0
Subtracting 0 from 35 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
89 can be fit into 350 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3130.3
If we subtract 267 from 350, we get 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 830, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 89 fits into 830 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3130.39
Subtracting 801 from 830 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
89 goes into 290 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3130.393
Subtracting 267 from 290 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
230 divided by 89 is 2 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3130.3932
Subtract 178 from 230 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 11:
89 goes into 520 5 times with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3130.39325
Deduct 445 from 520 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
89 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3130.393258
If we subtract 712 from 750, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
380 divided by 89 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3130.3932584
Subtracting 356 from 380 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 89 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3130.39325842
Subtract 178 from 240 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

The final result is 3130.39325842 with a remainder of 6.2e-08.
