We look at the division of 256401 by 98 
We're looking to find how many times 98 goes into 256401.

Advancing to step 1:
98 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 98

Going ahead to step 2:
98 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 256 / 98

Step 3:
When dividing 256 by 98, we get 2 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 196 from 256, we get 60.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 604 / 98

Step 4:
604 divided by 98 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 588 from 604.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 160 / 98

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 160 by 98, we get 1 with a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 261.0
Deduct 98 from 160 and we're left with 62.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 62, then repeat: 621 / 98

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 621 by 98, we get 6 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2616.0
Subtract 588 from 621 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 330 by 98, we get 3 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2616.3
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 294 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 8:
98 goes into 360 3 times with a remainder of 66.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2616.33
If we take 294 away from 360, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2616.33, and the remainder is 0.066.
