We look at the division of 5401260 by 856 
We're looking to find how many times 856 goes into 5401260.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 856, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 856

Step 2:
54 divided by 856 is 0 with a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 54 to get 54.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 540 / 856

Step 3:
856 can be fit into 540 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 540.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 540 leaves us with 540.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 540 and continue with: 5401 / 856

Moving on to step 4:
5401 divided by 856 is 6 with a remainder of 265.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 5136 from 5401 to get 265.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 265 and repeat the process: 2652 / 856

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 2652 by 856, we get 3 with a remainder of 84.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 2568 from 2652, we get 84.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 84, then repeat: 846 / 856

On to step 6:
When dividing 846 by 856, we get 0 with a remainder of 846.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 630.0
The remainder is 846 after subtracting 0 from 846.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 846 and repeat the process: 8460 / 856

On to step 7:
The number 856 fits into 8460 9 times, leaving a remainder of 756.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6309.0
Subtracting 7704 from 8460 leaves us with 756.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7560, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
7560 divided by 856 is 8 with a remainder of 712.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6309.8
The remainder is 712 after subtracting 6848 from 7560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 7120 by 856, we get 8 with a remainder of 272.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6309.88
Subtracting 6848 from 7120 leaves us with 272.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2720, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 6309.88, with a leftover of 0.272.
