Let's divide 256424 by 97
Our goal is to divide 256424 by 97.

Advancing to step 1:
97 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 97

Moving on to step 2:
97 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 256 / 97

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 256 by 97, we get 2 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 194 from 256.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 624 / 97

Let's proceed to step 4:
97 can be fit into 624 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 582 from 624.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 422 / 97

On to step 5:
97 goes into 422 4 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 264.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 388 from 422.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 344 / 97

Going ahead to step 6:
344 divided by 97 is 3 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2643.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 291 from 344.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
530 divided by 97 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2643.5
If we take 485 away from 530, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 8:
97 goes into 450 4 times with a remainder of 62.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2643.54
Deduct 388 from 450 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 9:
97 can be fit into 620 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2643.546
Subtract 582 from 620 to 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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 380 by 97, we get 3 with a remainder of 89.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2643.5463
If we subtract 291 from 380, we get 89.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 890, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
890 divided by 97 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2643.54639
Deduct 873 from 890 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 97 fits into 170 1 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2643.546391
If we take 97 away from 170, we end up with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Step 13:
97 goes into 730 7 times with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2643.5463917
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 679 from 730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Step 14:
97 can be fit into 510 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2643.54639175
Deduct 485 from 510 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

The final result is 2643.54639175 with a remainder of 2.5e-08.
