We're dividing 259955 by 76 
We want to figure out the number of times 259955 can be divided by 76.

Going ahead to step 1:
76 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 76

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 259 / 76

Moving on to step 3:
76 goes into 259 3 times with a remainder of 31.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 228 from 259 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 319 / 76

Let's proceed to step 4:
76 goes into 319 4 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we take 304 away from 319, we end up with 15.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 155 / 76

Step 5:
155 divided by 76 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 342.0
Subtract 152 from 155 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 35 / 76

On to step 6:
If we divide 35 by 76, we get 0 and a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3420.0
If we subtract 0 from 35, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 350 by 76, we get 4 and a remainder of 46.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3420.4
Subtracting 304 from 350 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 76 fits into 460 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3420.46
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 456 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
76 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3420.46
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 76 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3420.4605
If we take 380 away from 400, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 200 by 76, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3420.46052
If we subtract 152 from 200, we 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.

Advancing to step 12:
76 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3420.460526
If we subtract 456 from 480, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
76 goes into 240 3 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3420.4605263
Deduct 228 from 240 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 76 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3420.46052631
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 76 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3420.46052631 with a balance of 4.4e-08.
