4008879 ÷ 265 
Our goal is to divide 4008879 by 265.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 265, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 265

Going ahead to step 2:
265 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 400 / 265

Advancing to step 3:
265 goes into 400 1 times with a remainder of 135.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 265 from 400, we get 135.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 135, then repeat: 1358 / 265

On to step 4:
The number 265 fits into 1358 5 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 1325 from 1358 and we're left with 33.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 338 / 265

Step 5:
If we divide 338 by 265, we get 1 and a remainder of 73.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 151.0
If we take 265 away from 338, we end up with 73.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 737 / 265

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 265 fits into 737 2 times, leaving a remainder of 207.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1512.0
Subtract 530 from 737 to get 207.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 207 and repeat the process: 2079 / 265

On to step 7:
2079 divided by 265 is 7 with a remainder of 224.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15127.0
Subtracting 1855 from 2079 leaves us with 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
2240 divided by 265 is 8 with a remainder of 120.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15127.8
Subtracting 2120 from 2240 leaves us with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
265 goes into 1200 4 times with a remainder of 140.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15127.84
Deduct 1060 from 1200 and we're left with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
1400 divided by 265 is 5 with a remainder of 75.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15127.845
Subtracting 1325 from 1400 leaves us with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 265 fits into 750 2 times, leaving a remainder of 220.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15127.8452
If we subtract 530 from 750, we get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
265 goes into 2200 8 times with a remainder of 80.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15127.84528
If we subtract 2120 from 2200, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 800 by 265, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15127.845283
Subtracting 795 from 800 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 14:
50 divided by 265 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15127.845283
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
If we divide 500 by 265, we get 1 and a remainder of 235.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15127.84528301
If we take 265 away from 500, we end up with 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15127.84528301 with a balance of 2.35e-07.
