We divide 261493 by 75
We want to divide 261493 by 75.

Advancing to step 1:
2 divided by 75 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 75

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 26 by 75, we get 0 and a remainder of 26.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 261 / 75

Step 3:
75 goes into 261 3 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 225 from 261 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 364 / 75

Going ahead to step 4:
75 can be fit into 364 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 34.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 300 from 364.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 64, then repeat: 649 / 75

Let's proceed to step 5:
75 goes into 649 8 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 348.0
Subtracting 600 from 649 leaves us with 49.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 493 / 75

Step 6:
The number 75 fits into 493 6 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 3486.0
Subtracting 450 from 493 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
430 divided by 75 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3486.5
If we subtract 375 from 430, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
75 can be fit into 550 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3486.57
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 525 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 250 by 75, we get 3 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3486.573
Subtracting 225 from 250 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
75 goes into 250 3 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3486.5733
If we take 225 away from 250, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3486.5733, with a leftover of 0.00025.
