We're dividing 42608919 by 294 
Our goal is to divide 42608919 by 294.

Step 1:
294 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 294

Step 2:
294 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 426 / 294

Step 3:
294 can be fit into 426 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 132.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 294 from 426 and we're left with 132.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 132 and continue: 1320 / 294

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 1320 by 294, we get 4 and a remainder of 144.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 1176 away from 1320, we end up with 144.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 144 and repeat the process: 1448 / 294

On to step 5:
1448 divided by 294 is 4 with a remainder of 272.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144.0
Deduct 1176 from 1448 and we're left with 272.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 272, then repeat: 2729 / 294

Moving on to step 6:
2729 divided by 294 is 9 with a remainder of 83.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1449.0
If we take 2646 away from 2729, we end up with 83.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 83 and continue: 831 / 294

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 831 by 294, we get 2 with a remainder of 243.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14492.0
If we take 588 away from 831, we end up with 243.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 243, then repeat: 2439 / 294

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 2439 by 294, we get 8 with a remainder of 87.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144928.0
If we subtract 2352 from 2439, we get 87.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
294 goes into 870 2 times with a remainder of 282.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144928.2
Deduct 588 from 870 and we're left with 282.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 2820 by 294, we get 9 and a remainder of 174.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144928.29
The remainder is 174 after subtracting 2646 from 2820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 1740 by 294, we get 5 with a remainder of 270.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 144928.295
Subtract 1470 from 1740 to get 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 2700 by 294, we get 9 with a remainder of 54.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144928.2959
Subtract 2646 from 2700 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 294 fits into 540 1 times, leaving a remainder of 246.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 144928.29591
The remainder is 246 after subtracting 294 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 2460 by 294, we get 8 and a remainder of 108.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144928.295918
The remainder is 108 after subtracting 2352 from 2460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Step 15:
1080 divided by 294 is 3 with a remainder of 198.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 144928.2959183
The remainder is 198 after subtracting 882 from 1080.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
294 can be fit into 1980 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 216.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 144928.29591836
Deduct 1764 from 1980 and we're left with 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 144928.29591836 with a balance of 2.16e-07.
