Let's divide 261488 by 28
We want to divide 261488 by 28.

On to step 1:
The number 28 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 28

Moving on to step 2:
The number 28 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 261 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 28 fits into 261 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 252 from 261 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 94 / 28

Advancing to step 4:
28 can be fit into 94 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 93.0
Subtracting 84 from 94 leaves us with 10.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 108 / 28

Step 5:
108 divided by 28 is 3 with a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 933.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 84 from 108.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 248 / 28

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 28 fits into 248 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9338.0
Subtract 224 from 248 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
240 divided by 28 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9338.8
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 28 fits into 160 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9338.85
Deduct 140 from 160 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9338.857
If we subtract 196 from 200, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 28 fits into 40 1 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9338.8571
Subtracting 28 from 40 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 28, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9338.85714
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 112 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 80 by 28, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9338.857142
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 13:
28 goes into 240 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 9338.8571428
Subtract 224 from 240 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 28 fits into 160 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9338.85714285
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 140 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9338.85714285 and a remainder of 2e-08.
