We look at the division of 21479831 by 262 
We're looking to find how many times 262 goes into 21479831.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 262 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 262

Let's proceed to step 2:
262 goes into 21 0 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 214 / 262

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 214 by 262, we get 0 and a remainder of 214.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 214, we get 214.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 214 and repeat the process: 2147 / 262

Step 4:
262 can be fit into 2147 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 2096 from 2147 leaves us with 51.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 519 / 262

Moving on to step 5:
The number 262 fits into 519 1 times, leaving a remainder of 257.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we subtract 262 from 519, we get 257.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 257, then carry on: 2578 / 262

Going ahead to step 6:
262 goes into 2578 9 times with a remainder of 220.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 819.0
If we subtract 2358 from 2578, we get 220.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 220 and repeat the process: 2203 / 262

On to step 7:
2203 divided by 262 is 8 with a remainder of 107.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8198.0
Deduct 2096 from 2203 and we're left with 107.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 107, then repeat: 1071 / 262

Moving on to step 8:
262 can be fit into 1071 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81984.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 1048 from 1071.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
262 goes into 230 0 times with a remainder of 230.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 81984.0
Subtract 0 from 230 to get 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 2300 by 262, we get 8 and a remainder of 204.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 81984.08
If we subtract 2096 from 2300, we get 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 2040 by 262, we get 7 with a remainder of 206.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81984.087
If we subtract 1834 from 2040, we get 206.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
262 goes into 2060 7 times with a remainder of 226.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 81984.0877
Subtracting 1834 from 2060 leaves us with 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

Our division results in 81984.0877 with a remaining 0.00226.
