We divide 255287 by 84
Our goal is to divide 255287 by 84.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 84

Moving on to step 2:
84 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 255 / 84

Advancing to step 3:
255 divided by 84 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 252 from 255 to get 3.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 32 / 84

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 32 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we take 0 away from 32, we end up with 32.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 328 / 84

Going ahead to step 5:
84 can be fit into 328 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 303.0
If we subtract 252 from 328, we get 76.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 76, then repeat: 767 / 84

Step 6:
767 divided by 84 is 9 with a remainder of 11.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3039.0
Subtract 756 from 767 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
110 divided by 84 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3039.1
Deduct 84 from 110 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
260 divided by 84 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3039.13
Subtract 252 from 260 to 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:
84 can be fit into 80 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 80.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3039.13
Subtract 0 from 80 to get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 84 fits into 800 9 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3039.1309
If we take 756 away from 800, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
84 can be fit into 440 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3039.13095
Subtracting 420 from 440 leaves us 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:
84 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3039.130952
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
84 can be fit into 320 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3039.1309523
If we take 252 away from 320, we end up with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 84 fits into 680 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3039.13095238
Subtract 672 from 680 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 3039.13095238, and the remainder is 8e-09.
