We divide 262948 by 1
Our goal is to divide 262948 by 1.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 1, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 2 away from 2, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 1

Step 2:
1 goes into 6 6 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 6 from 6 leaves us with 0.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 2 / 1

Step 3:
The number 1 fits into 2 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 262.0
If we take 2 away from 2, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 1

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 9 by 1, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2629.0
Subtract 9 from 9 to get 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 4 by 1, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 26294.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 4 from 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 1

Step 6:
When dividing 8 by 1, we get 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 262948.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 8 from 8.
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 7:
The number 1 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 262948.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 262948.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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 262948.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
