278665 ÷ 82 
Our goal is to divide 278665 by 82.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 82 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 82

On to step 2:
82 goes into 27 0 times 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.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 82

Going ahead to step 3:
82 goes into 278 3 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 246 from 278, we get 32.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 326 / 82

On to step 4:
82 can be fit into 326 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 33.0
Deduct 246 from 326 and we're left with 80.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 80, then repeat: 806 / 82

Going ahead to step 5:
82 can be fit into 806 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 339.0
Subtract 738 from 806 to get 68.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 68, then repeat: 685 / 82

Let's proceed to step 6:
82 can be fit into 685 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3398.0
Subtract 656 from 685 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 290 by 82, we get 3 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3398.3
If we subtract 246 from 290, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
82 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3398.35
Subtract 410 from 440 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 300 by 82, we get 3 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3398.353
If we take 246 away from 300, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 540 by 82, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3398.3536
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 492 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
82 goes into 480 5 times with a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3398.35365
If we take 410 away from 480, we end up with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
82 can be fit into 700 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3398.353658
If we take 656 away from 700, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
440 divided by 82 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3398.3536585
Deduct 410 from 440 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 300 by 82, we get 3 and a remainder of 54.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3398.35365853
Deduct 246 from 300 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3398.35365853, with a leftover of 5.4e-08.
