256578 ÷ 84 
Let's see how many times 84 fits into 256578.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 84 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 84

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 84 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 256 / 84

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 256 by 84, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 252 from 256 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 84

Advancing to step 4:
45 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtracting 0 from 45 leaves us with 45.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 457 / 84

Going ahead to step 5:
84 goes into 457 5 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 305.0
Subtract 420 from 457 to get 37.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 378 / 84

Advancing to step 6:
378 divided by 84 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3054.0
Deduct 336 from 378 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
84 goes into 420 5 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3054.5
Subtracting 420 from 420 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.

Advancing to step 8:
0 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3054.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 84, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3054.5
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3054.5 with a balance of 0.0.
