We're dividing 212278 by 8 
We want to divide 212278 by 8.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 8

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 21 by 8, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 16 from 21 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 8

Let's proceed to step 3:
8 goes into 52 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 48 from 52.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 8

Advancing to step 4:
The number 8 fits into 42 5 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 265.0
Subtracting 40 from 42 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 8

Step 5:
8 can be fit into 27 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2653.0
Subtracting 24 from 27 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 8

On to step 6:
When dividing 38 by 8, we get 4 with a remainder of 6.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26534.0
Deduct 32 from 38 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
8 goes into 60 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26534.7
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 8:
8 goes into 40 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26534.75
Subtracting 40 from 40 leaves us with 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 9:
0 divided by 8 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26534.75
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 10:
The number 8 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26534.75
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.

The final outcome is 26534.75, with a leftover of 0.0.
