Let's divide 259787 by 81
Let's see how many times 81 fits into 259787.

Step 1:
The number 81 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 81

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 81, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 259 / 81

Step 3:
When dividing 259 by 81, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 243 from 259 and we're left with 16.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 167 / 81

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 167 by 81, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtracting 162 from 167 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 81

Let's proceed to step 5:
81 can be fit into 58 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 320.0
Subtracting 0 from 58 leaves us with 58.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 587 / 81

Step 6:
If we divide 587 by 81, we get 7 and a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3207.0
If we take 567 away from 587, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 200 by 81, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3207.2
Subtracting 162 from 200 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 380 by 81, we get 4 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3207.24
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 324 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 560 by 81, we get 6 and a remainder of 74.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3207.246
Deduct 486 from 560 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
81 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3207.2469
Deduct 729 from 740 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
81 goes into 110 1 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3207.24691
Deduct 81 from 110 and we're left 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 12:
81 goes into 290 3 times with a remainder of 47.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3207.246913
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 243 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 81 fits into 470 5 times, leaving a remainder of 65.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3207.2469135
Subtract 405 from 470 to get 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 81 fits into 650 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3207.24691358
If we subtract 648 from 650, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final result is 3207.24691358 with a remainder of 2e-09.
