Let's divide 2600727 by 842
Our goal is to divide 2600727 by 842.

On to step 1:
The number 842 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 842

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 26 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 260 / 842

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 842 fits into 260 0 times, leaving a remainder of 260.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 260 after subtracting 0 from 260.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 260, then carry on: 2600 / 842

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 842 fits into 2600 3 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 2526 from 2600 leaves us with 74.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 747 / 842

Step 5:
If we divide 747 by 842, we get 0 and a remainder of 747.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we subtract 0 from 747, we get 747.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 747, then repeat: 7472 / 842

Moving on to step 6:
7472 divided by 842 is 8 with a remainder of 736.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 308.0
Deduct 6736 from 7472 and we're left with 736.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 736 and continue with: 7367 / 842

Step 7:
842 goes into 7367 8 times with a remainder of 631.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3088.0
If we subtract 6736 from 7367, we get 631.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 842 fits into 6310 7 times, leaving a remainder of 416.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3088.7
Subtract 5894 from 6310 to get 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 4160 by 842, we get 4 with a remainder of 792.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3088.74
Deduct 3368 from 4160 and we're left with 792.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
7920 divided by 842 is 9 with a remainder of 342.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3088.749
Deduct 7578 from 7920 and we're left with 342.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 3420 by 842, we get 4 and a remainder of 52.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3088.7494
If we subtract 3368 from 3420, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 12:
520 divided by 842 is 0 with a remainder of 520.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3088.7494
Subtracting 0 from 520 leaves us with 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 5200 by 842, we get 6 and a remainder of 148.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3088.749406
Deduct 5052 from 5200 and we're left with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1480 by 842, we get 1 with a remainder of 638.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3088.7494061
The remainder is 638 after subtracting 842 from 1480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6380, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 842 fits into 6380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 486.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3088.74940617
Subtracting 5894 from 6380 leaves us with 486.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4860, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3088.74940617 and a remainder of 4.86e-07.
