We look at the division of 278800 by 8 
We're looking to find how many times 8 goes into 278800.

Moving on to step 1:
8 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in 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 (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 8

Step 2:
When dividing 27 by 8, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 24 from 27, we get 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 8

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 38 by 8, we get 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
Subtracting 32 from 38 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 68 / 8

On to step 4:
If we divide 68 by 8, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 348.0
Deduct 64 from 68 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 8

Advancing to step 5:
The number 8 fits into 40 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3485.0
If we take 40 away from 40, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 0 / 8

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 0 by 8, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 34850.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 34850.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 8:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34850.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 34850.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
