Let's divide 261188 by 86
Our goal is to divide 261188 by 86.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 86, we get 0 and 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 (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 86

Let's proceed to step 2:
86 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 261 / 86

Moving on to step 3:
86 can be fit into 261 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 258 from 261 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 86

On to step 4:
86 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 318 / 86

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 318 by 86, we get 3 and a remainder of 60.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 303.0
Subtract 258 from 318 to get 60.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 60, then carry on: 608 / 86

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 608 by 86, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3037.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 602 from 608.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
86 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3037.0
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 600 by 86, we get 6 with a remainder of 84.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3037.06
Subtract 516 from 600 to get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
86 goes into 840 9 times with a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3037.069
Deduct 774 from 840 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
86 can be fit into 660 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3037.0697
Subtract 602 from 660 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 580 by 86, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3037.06976
Deduct 516 from 580 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
640 divided by 86 is 7 with a remainder of 38.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3037.069767
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 602 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
380 divided by 86 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3037.0697674
Deduct 344 from 380 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
360 divided by 86 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3037.06976744
Subtracting 344 from 360 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3037.06976744, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
