We divide 42988456 by 117
We want to divide 42988456 by 117.

Moving on to step 1:
117 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 42 / 117

On to step 2:
When dividing 42 by 117, we get 0 with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 429 / 117

Let's proceed to step 3:
117 can be fit into 429 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 78.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 351 away from 429, we end up with 78.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 78, then repeat: 788 / 117

Going ahead to step 4:
788 divided by 117 is 6 with a remainder of 86.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 702 away from 788, we end up with 86.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 86 and continue with: 868 / 117

Step 5:
When dividing 868 by 117, we get 7 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 367.0
If we take 819 away from 868, we end up with 49.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 494 / 117

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 494 by 117, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3674.0
Deduct 468 from 494 and we're left with 26.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 117

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 265 by 117, we get 2 with a remainder of 31.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36742.0
Subtract 234 from 265 to get 31.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 316 / 117

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 316 by 117, we get 2 with a remainder of 82.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 367422.0
If we take 234 away from 316, we end up with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 820 by 117, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 367422.7
If we subtract 819 from 820, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
117 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 367422.7
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
117 goes into 100 0 times with a remainder of 100.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 367422.7
Deduct 0 from 100 and we're left with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 367422.7, with a leftover of 0.01.
