242566 divided by 54 
We want to divide 242566 by 54.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 54

Moving on to step 2:
The number 54 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 242 / 54

Advancing to step 3:
54 can be fit into 242 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 216 from 242, we get 26.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 265 / 54

On to step 4:
265 divided by 54 is 4 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we take 216 away from 265, we end up with 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 54

Let's proceed to step 5:
496 divided by 54 is 9 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 449.0
Subtract 486 from 496 to get 10.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 106 / 54

On to step 6:
When dividing 106 by 54, we get 1 with a remainder of 52.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4491.0
Deduct 54 from 106 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
520 divided by 54 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4491.9
Subtract 486 from 520 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 54 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4491.96
Subtracting 324 from 340 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
54 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4491.962
Subtract 108 from 160 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 520 by 54, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4491.9629
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 486 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 54 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4491.96296
If we subtract 324 from 340, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
54 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4491.962962
Subtract 108 from 160 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
54 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4491.9629629
Deduct 486 from 520 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 340 by 54, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4491.96296296
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 324 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4491.96296296, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
