We divide 261408 by 44
We want to divide 261408 by 44.

Let's proceed to step 1:
44 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 44

Step 2:
44 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 261 / 44

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 261 by 44, we get 5 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 220 from 261, we get 41.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 414 / 44

Step 4:
414 divided by 44 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 396 away from 414, we end up with 18.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 180 / 44

On to step 5:
The number 44 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 594.0
Deduct 176 from 180 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 44

Advancing to step 6:
48 divided by 44 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5941.0
If we subtract 44 from 48, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
44 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5941.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 44 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5941.09
Subtracting 396 from 400 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 40 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5941.09
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 400 by 44, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5941.0909
If we subtract 396 from 400, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
44 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: 5941.0909
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 44, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5941.090909
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 396 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 44, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5941.090909
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
400 divided by 44 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5941.09090909
Subtracting 396 from 400 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 5941.09090909, and the remainder is 4e-09.
