Let's divide 115522 by 42
We want to divide 115522 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 115 / 42

Step 3:
115 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 84 from 115 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 315 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 315 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we subtract 294 from 315, we get 21.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 212 / 42

Step 5:
42 goes into 212 5 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 275.0
Subtracting 210 from 212 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 42

On to step 6:
42 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2750.0
Deduct 0 from 22 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 7:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2750.5
Subtract 210 from 220 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.

Advancing to step 8:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2750.52
Subtract 84 from 100 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2750.523
If we subtract 126 from 160, we 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 10:
340 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2750.5238
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2750.5238
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2750.523809
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2750.5238095
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2750.52380952
Subtract 84 from 100 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2750.52380952 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
