We're dividing 257181 by 8 
Let's see how many times 8 fits into 257181.

Going ahead to step 1:
8 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 8

Moving on to step 2:
The number 8 fits into 25 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 24 from 25 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 8

Step 3:
If we divide 17 by 8, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 16 from 17 to get 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 8

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 11 by 8, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 321.0
Subtracting 8 from 11 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 38 / 8

On to step 5:
If we divide 38 by 8, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3214.0
Deduct 32 from 38 and we're left with 6.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 61 / 8

On to step 6:
The number 8 fits into 61 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32147.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 56 from 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
8 goes into 50 6 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32147.6
Deduct 48 from 50 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
8 goes into 20 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 32147.62
Subtract 16 from 20 to 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 9:
40 divided by 8 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32147.625
Deduct 40 from 40 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
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: 32147.625
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
8 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32147.625
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.

The final result is 32147.625 with a remainder of 0.0.
