We're dividing 252046 by 6 
Our goal is to divide 252046 by 6.

Moving on to step 1:
6 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 6

On to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 6, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 24 from 25.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 6

On to step 3:
6 goes into 12 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtract 12 from 12 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 6

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 0 by 6, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 420.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 6

Step 5:
The number 6 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4200.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 6

Going ahead to step 6:
6 can be fit into 46 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42007.0
If we subtract 42 from 46, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
40 divided by 6 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 42007.6
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
6 goes into 40 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42007.66
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 42007.66 with a remainder of 0.004.
