#895#

Explanation:

Either do the long division as is, or rewrite:

#25060/28 = (cancel(2)*12530)/(cancel(2)*14)#

# = 12530/14 = (cancel(2)*6265)/(cancel(2)*7)#

# = 6265/7#. This is a much easier division to do:

# = 895#

#color(white)( 7/color(black)(7) )color(white)(xx(color(black)(895)))/( ")" color(white)(")")6265)#
#color(white)(-xx)(56color(white)(x))/(color(white)(x) 66) #
#color(white)(-xxx)(63color(white)(5))/(color(white)(x)35)#
#color(white)(-xxxx)(35)/(color(white)(x) 0)#
