We divide 14408493 by 259
We want to figure out the number of times 14408493 can be divided by 259.

Moving on to step 1:
259 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 259

Moving on to step 2:
259 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 144 / 259

On to step 3:
259 goes into 144 0 times with a remainder of 144.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 144, we end up with 144.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 144 and continue with: 1440 / 259

Advancing to step 4:
1440 divided by 259 is 5 with a remainder of 145.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 145 after subtracting 1295 from 1440.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 145, then carry on: 1458 / 259

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1458 by 259, we get 5 with a remainder of 163.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Deduct 1295 from 1458 and we're left with 163.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 163, then repeat: 1634 / 259

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 259 fits into 1634 6 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 556.0
If we subtract 1554 from 1634, we get 80.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 80, then carry on: 809 / 259

On to step 7:
If we divide 809 by 259, we get 3 and a remainder of 32.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5563.0
Subtract 777 from 809 to get 32.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 323 / 259

Advancing to step 8:
259 goes into 323 1 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55631.0
Deduct 259 from 323 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
640 divided by 259 is 2 with a remainder of 122.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55631.2
If we take 518 away from 640, we end up with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
259 goes into 1220 4 times with a remainder of 184.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55631.24
Deduct 1036 from 1220 and we're left with 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
1840 divided by 259 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55631.247
Deduct 1813 from 1840 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 270 by 259, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55631.2471
Subtracting 259 from 270 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 110 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 110.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55631.2471
Deduct 0 from 110 and we're left with 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
1100 divided by 259 is 4 with a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55631.247104
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 1036 from 1100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
259 can be fit into 640 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 122.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55631.2471042
Subtracting 518 from 640 leaves us with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
259 can be fit into 1220 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 184.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55631.24710424
The remainder is 184 after subtracting 1036 from 1220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

The final result is 55631.24710424 with a remainder of 1.84e-07.
