We look at the division of 2656875 by 278 
Our goal is to divide 2656875 by 278.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 278

Let's proceed to step 2:
278 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 26 to get 26.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 265 / 278

Going ahead to step 3:
278 goes into 265 0 times with a remainder of 265.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 265, we end up with 265.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 265, then carry on: 2656 / 278

On to step 4:
When dividing 2656 by 278, we get 9 with a remainder of 154.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 2502 from 2656, we get 154.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 154 and continue: 1548 / 278

Step 5:
When dividing 1548 by 278, we get 5 with a remainder of 158.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 95.0
If we take 1390 away from 1548, we end up with 158.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 158, then repeat: 1587 / 278

On to step 6:
When dividing 1587 by 278, we get 5 with a remainder of 197.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 955.0
Deduct 1390 from 1587 and we're left with 197.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 197 and continue: 1975 / 278

Step 7:
When dividing 1975 by 278, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9557.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 1946 from 1975.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 8:
278 goes into 290 1 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9557.1
Subtract 278 from 290 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
278 goes into 120 0 times with a remainder of 120.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9557.1
The remainder is 120 after subtracting 0 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Step 10:
278 goes into 1200 4 times with a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9557.104
Deduct 1112 from 1200 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 880 by 278, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 9557.1043
If we take 834 away from 880, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 12:
460 divided by 278 is 1 with a remainder of 182.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9557.10431
If we take 278 away from 460, we end up with 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 1820 by 278, we get 6 with a remainder of 152.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9557.104316
Deduct 1668 from 1820 and we're left with 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 278 fits into 1520 5 times, leaving a remainder of 130.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9557.1043165
If we subtract 1390 from 1520, we get 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 1300 by 278, we get 4 and a remainder of 188.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9557.10431654
If we take 1112 away from 1300, we end up with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9557.10431654 with a balance of 1.88e-07.
