Let's divide 406504 by 65
We want to divide 406504 by 65.

Let's proceed to step 1:
65 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 65

On to step 2:
65 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 406 / 65

Moving on to step 3:
The number 65 fits into 406 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 390 from 406, we get 16.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 165 / 65

Advancing to step 4:
65 can be fit into 165 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 62.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 130 from 165.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 350 / 65

Moving on to step 5:
65 goes into 350 5 times with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 625.0
If we take 325 away from 350, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 254 / 65

Moving on to step 6:
254 divided by 65 is 3 with a remainder of 59.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6253.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 195 from 254.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
65 can be fit into 590 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.9
Subtract 585 from 590 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 50 by 65, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6253.9
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
65 can be fit into 500 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6253.907
Subtract 455 from 500 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 450 by 65, we get 6 with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6253.9076
Deduct 390 from 450 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Step 11:
65 can be fit into 600 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6253.90769
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 585 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 150 by 65, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.907692
Subtract 130 from 150 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
65 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.9076923
If we subtract 195 from 200, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 50 by 65, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6253.9076923
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6253.9076923 with a remaining 5e-08.
