We're dividing 39655558 by 243 
We're looking to find how many times 243 goes into 39655558.

Step 1:
The number 243 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 39 / 243

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 39 by 243, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 39, we get 39.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 396 / 243

Step 3:
If we divide 396 by 243, we get 1 and a remainder of 153.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 243 from 396 and we're left with 153.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 153, then repeat: 1535 / 243

Step 4:
The number 243 fits into 1535 6 times, leaving a remainder of 77.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 1458 from 1535 and we're left with 77.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 77, then carry on: 775 / 243

Step 5:
If we divide 775 by 243, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 163.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 729 from 775.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 465 / 243

On to step 6:
243 goes into 465 1 times with a remainder of 222.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1631.0
The remainder is 222 after subtracting 243 from 465.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 222, then carry on: 2225 / 243

Moving on to step 7:
The number 243 fits into 2225 9 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16319.0
If we take 2187 away from 2225, we end up with 38.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 388 / 243

On to step 8:
If we divide 388 by 243, we get 1 and a remainder of 145.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 163191.0
Subtract 243 from 388 to get 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 1450 by 243, we get 5 and a remainder of 235.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163191.5
Subtract 1215 from 1450 to get 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
243 can be fit into 2350 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 163.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 163191.59
The remainder is 163 after subtracting 2187 from 2350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1630, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 243 fits into 1630 6 times, leaving a remainder of 172.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 163191.596
If we take 1458 away from 1630, we end up with 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
243 goes into 1720 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 163191.5967
Subtract 1701 from 1720 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
243 can be fit into 190 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 190.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 163191.5967
If we subtract 0 from 190, we get 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1900 by 243, we get 7 with a remainder of 199.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 163191.596707
If we subtract 1701 from 1900, we get 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1990, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
243 can be fit into 1990 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 163191.5967078
Subtracting 1944 from 1990 leaves us 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 16:
The number 243 fits into 460 1 times, leaving a remainder of 217.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 163191.59670781
If we take 243 away from 460, we end up with 217.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2170, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 163191.59670781 and a remainder of 2.17e-07.
