Let's divide 7260458 by 271
We want to figure out the number of times 7260458 can be divided by 271.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 271, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 271

Let's proceed to step 2:
271 can be fit into 72 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 0 from 72.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 726 / 271

Let's proceed to step 3:
271 goes into 726 2 times with a remainder of 184.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 184 after subtracting 542 from 726.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 184 and continue: 1840 / 271

Step 4:
If we divide 1840 by 271, we get 6 and a remainder of 214.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 1626 from 1840, we get 214.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 214, then repeat: 2144 / 271

Let's proceed to step 5:
271 goes into 2144 7 times with a remainder of 247.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 267.0
If we take 1897 away from 2144, we end up with 247.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 247, then carry on: 2475 / 271

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 2475 by 271, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2679.0
Subtracting 2439 from 2475 leaves us with 36.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 271

Advancing to step 7:
368 divided by 271 is 1 with a remainder of 97.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26791.0
If we subtract 271 from 368, we get 97.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 970, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
970 divided by 271 is 3 with a remainder of 157.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26791.3
If we take 813 away from 970, we end up with 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
271 can be fit into 1570 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 215.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26791.35
If we subtract 1355 from 1570, we get 215.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
2150 divided by 271 is 7 with a remainder of 253.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26791.357
Subtract 1897 from 2150 to get 253.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

Step 11:
2530 divided by 271 is 9 with a remainder of 91.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26791.3579
Deduct 2439 from 2530 and we're left with 91.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 910, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 271 fits into 910 3 times, leaving a remainder of 97.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26791.35793
Deduct 813 from 910 and we're left with 97.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 970, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
271 can be fit into 970 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 157.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26791.357933
Subtracting 813 from 970 leaves us with 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1570, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 26791.357933 and a remainder of 1.57e-05.
