Let's divide 251959 by 86
We want to figure out the number of times 251959 can be divided by 86.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 86 fits into 2 0 times, leaving 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.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 86

On to step 2:
86 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 251 / 86

Step 3:
If we divide 251 by 86, we get 2 and a remainder of 79.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 172 from 251 to get 79.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 79, then repeat: 799 / 86

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 799 by 86, we get 9 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 774 from 799.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 255 / 86

Going ahead to step 5:
86 can be fit into 255 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 292.0
The remainder is 83 after subtracting 172 from 255.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 83 and continue with: 839 / 86

Advancing to step 6:
839 divided by 86 is 9 with a remainder of 65.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2929.0
If we take 774 away from 839, we end up with 65.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 650, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 650 by 86, we get 7 with a remainder of 48.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2929.7
Subtract 602 from 650 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 480 by 86, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2929.75
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 430 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
500 divided by 86 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2929.755
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 430 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2929.755 with a remaining 0.007.
