We're dividing 42859060 by 769 
We want to divide 42859060 by 769.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 769, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of 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 / 769

Going ahead to step 2:
769 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 428 / 769

Going ahead to step 3:
428 divided by 769 is 0 with a remainder of 428.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 428, we end up with 428.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 428 and continue: 4285 / 769

Going ahead to step 4:
4285 divided by 769 is 5 with a remainder of 440.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 3845 from 4285, we get 440.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 440, then repeat: 4409 / 769

On to step 5:
If we divide 4409 by 769, we get 5 and a remainder of 564.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtract 3845 from 4409 to get 564.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 564, then repeat: 5640 / 769

On to step 6:
769 can be fit into 5640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 257.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 557.0
If we take 5383 away from 5640, we end up with 257.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 257, then repeat: 2576 / 769

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 2576 by 769, we get 3 with a remainder of 269.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5573.0
Subtracting 2307 from 2576 leaves us with 269.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 269, then carry on: 2690 / 769

Moving on to step 8:
The number 769 fits into 2690 3 times, leaving a remainder of 383.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55733.0
Subtract 2307 from 2690 to get 383.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3830, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 3830 by 769, we get 4 and a remainder of 754.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55733.4
If we take 3076 away from 3830, we end up with 754.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7540, and continue the process.

Step 10:
7540 divided by 769 is 9 with a remainder of 619.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55733.49
If we take 6921 away from 7540, we end up with 619.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 6190 by 769, we get 8 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55733.498
If we take 6152 away from 6190, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
380 divided by 769 is 0 with a remainder of 380.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55733.498
The remainder is 380 after subtracting 0 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3800, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
3800 divided by 769 is 4 with a remainder of 724.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55733.49804
If we take 3076 away from 3800, we end up with 724.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
769 can be fit into 7240 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 319.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 55733.498049
If we subtract 6921 from 7240, we get 319.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
If we divide 3190 by 769, we get 4 and a remainder of 114.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55733.4980494
Subtract 3076 from 3190 to get 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 1140 by 769, we get 1 with a remainder of 371.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55733.49804941
Subtract 769 from 1140 to get 371.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3710, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 55733.49804941 with a balance of 3.71e-07.
