We divide 72842971 by 294
Let's see how many times 294 fits into 72842971.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 294, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 294

Step 2:
294 goes into 72 0 times with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 72, we get 72.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 728 / 294

Moving on to step 3:
294 goes into 728 2 times with a remainder of 140.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 588 from 728, we get 140.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 140, then repeat: 1404 / 294

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 1404 by 294, we get 4 and a remainder of 228.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 228 after subtracting 1176 from 1404.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 228 and repeat the process: 2282 / 294

Going ahead to step 5:
294 can be fit into 2282 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 224.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 247.0
Subtracting 2058 from 2282 leaves us with 224.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 224, then carry on: 2249 / 294

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 2249 by 294, we get 7 and a remainder of 191.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2477.0
If we subtract 2058 from 2249, we get 191.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 191, then repeat: 1917 / 294

Step 7:
294 goes into 1917 6 times with a remainder of 153.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24776.0
Deduct 1764 from 1917 and we're left with 153.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 153 and continue with: 1531 / 294

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 1531 by 294, we get 5 and a remainder of 61.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 247765.0
The remainder is 61 after subtracting 1470 from 1531.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
610 divided by 294 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 247765.2
Subtracting 588 from 610 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 294 fits into 220 0 times, leaving a remainder of 220.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 247765.2
Deduct 0 from 220 and we're left with 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
294 goes into 2200 7 times with a remainder of 142.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 247765.207
The remainder is 142 after subtracting 2058 from 2200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 1420 by 294, we get 4 with a remainder of 244.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 247765.2074
Subtract 1176 from 1420 to get 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 2440 by 294, we get 8 and a remainder of 88.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 247765.20748
Deduct 2352 from 2440 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
294 goes into 880 2 times with a remainder of 292.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 247765.207482
Deduct 588 from 880 and we're left with 292.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2920, and continue the process.

Step 15:
294 can be fit into 2920 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 274.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 247765.2074829
Subtracting 2646 from 2920 leaves us with 274.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
294 can be fit into 2740 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 94.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 247765.20748299
If we subtract 2646 from 2740, we get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Our division results in 247765.20748299 with a remaining 9.4e-08.
