242387 ÷ 6 
Let's see how many times 6 fits into 242387.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 6, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 6

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 6, we get 4 with a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 24 from 24 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 2 / 6

On to step 3:
6 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 6

On to step 4:
6 goes into 23 3 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 403.0
If we take 18 away from 23, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 6

Going ahead to step 5:
6 goes into 58 9 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4039.0
If we take 54 away from 58, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 6

Advancing to step 6:
6 goes into 47 7 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40397.0
Subtracting 42 from 47 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 6, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40397.8
Subtracting 48 from 50 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 6 fits into 20 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 40397.83
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 18 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
6 goes into 20 3 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 40397.833
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 40397.833 with a balance of 0.0002.
