We're dividing 12779298 by 259 
Let's see how many times 259 fits into 12779298.

Step 1:
259 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 259

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 127 / 259

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 127 by 259, we get 0 with a remainder of 127.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 127, we get 127.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 127, then repeat: 1277 / 259

Step 4:
If we divide 1277 by 259, we get 4 and a remainder of 241.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 1036 away from 1277, we end up with 241.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 241 and continue: 2419 / 259

Step 5:
When dividing 2419 by 259, we get 9 with a remainder of 88.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 2331 away from 2419, we end up with 88.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 88, then carry on: 882 / 259

Going ahead to step 6:
259 goes into 882 3 times with a remainder of 105.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 493.0
Subtracting 777 from 882 leaves us with 105.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 105, then carry on: 1059 / 259

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 1059 by 259, we get 4 with a remainder of 23.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4934.0
Subtract 1036 from 1059 to get 23.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 238 / 259

Moving on to step 8:
238 divided by 259 is 0 with a remainder of 238.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49340.0
If we subtract 0 from 238, we get 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
2380 divided by 259 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49340.9
Deduct 2331 from 2380 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 10:
490 divided by 259 is 1 with a remainder of 231.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49340.91
If we subtract 259 from 490, we get 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 2310 by 259, we get 8 and a remainder of 238.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49340.918
If we take 2072 away from 2310, we end up with 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 259 fits into 2380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49340.9189
If we take 2331 away from 2380, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
259 goes into 490 1 times with a remainder of 231.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 49340.91891
If we take 259 away from 490, we end up with 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
259 can be fit into 2310 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 238.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49340.918918
If we subtract 2072 from 2310, we get 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
2380 divided by 259 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49340.9189189
If we take 2331 away from 2380, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
490 divided by 259 is 1 with a remainder of 231.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49340.91891891
Subtracting 259 from 490 leaves us with 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 49340.91891891, and the remainder is 2.31e-07.
