We're dividing 256284 by 7 
We're looking to find how many times 7 goes into 256284.

On to step 1:
The number 7 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 7

Advancing to step 2:
25 divided by 7 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 21 from 25, we get 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 7

Advancing to step 3:
7 goes into 46 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 42 from 46.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 7

Moving on to step 4:
7 can be fit into 42 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 366.0
Deduct 42 from 42 and we're left with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 7

Moving on to step 5:
7 goes into 8 1 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3661.0
If we subtract 7 from 8, we get 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 7

On to step 6:
7 goes into 14 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36612.0
Subtract 14 from 14 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
0 divided by 7 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36612.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 7, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36612.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 36612.0 and a remainder of 0.0.
