Let's divide 257726 by 12
Let's see how many times 12 fits into 257726.

Let's proceed to step 1:
12 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 12

Step 2:
12 goes into 25 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 24 from 25 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 12

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 12 fits into 17 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtracting 12 from 17 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 12

Step 4:
When dividing 57 by 12, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 214.0
If we subtract 48 from 57, we get 9.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 92 / 12

Step 5:
The number 12 fits into 92 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2147.0
If we subtract 84 from 92, we get 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 12

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 86 by 12, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21477.0
Subtracting 84 from 86 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 7:
12 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21477.1
Deduct 12 from 20 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
12 can be fit into 80 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21477.16
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 80 by 12, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21477.166
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 72 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 21477.166 with a balance of 0.0008.
