We look at the division of 266872 by 70 
We want to figure out the number of times 266872 can be divided by 70.

Let's proceed to step 1:
70 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 70

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 26 by 70, we get 0 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 26 to get 26.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 266 / 70

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 70 fits into 266 3 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 210 from 266 and we're left with 56.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 568 / 70

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 70 fits into 568 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we take 560 away from 568, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 70

On to step 5:
70 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 381.0
If we take 70 away from 87, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 172 / 70

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 172 by 70, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3812.0
Subtracting 140 from 172 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 320 by 70, we get 4 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3812.4
If we take 280 away from 320, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 70 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3812.45
If we take 350 away from 400, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
500 divided by 70 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3812.457
If we take 490 away from 500, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
100 divided by 70 is 1 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3812.4571
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 70 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 70 fits into 300 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3812.45714
Deduct 280 from 300 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 200 by 70, we get 2 and a remainder of 60.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3812.457142
If we subtract 140 from 200, we get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 600 by 70, we get 8 and a remainder of 40.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3812.4571428
If we take 560 away from 600, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 400 by 70, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3812.45714285
Subtract 350 from 400 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3812.45714285, and the remainder is 5e-08.
