Let's divide 1215550 by 842
We want to divide 1215550 by 842.

Going ahead to step 1:
842 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 842

On to step 2:
12 divided by 842 is 0 with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 121 / 842

Moving on to step 3:
The number 842 fits into 121 0 times, leaving a remainder of 121.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 121 and we're left with 121.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 121 and repeat the process: 1215 / 842

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 1215 by 842, we get 1 and a remainder of 373.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 842 from 1215 and we're left with 373.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 373 and continue: 3735 / 842

Let's proceed to step 5:
842 goes into 3735 4 times with a remainder of 367.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 3368 from 3735, we get 367.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 367, then carry on: 3675 / 842

Step 6:
When dividing 3675 by 842, we get 4 with a remainder of 307.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144.0
Subtract 3368 from 3675 to get 307.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 307, then repeat: 3070 / 842

Moving on to step 7:
842 goes into 3070 3 times with a remainder of 544.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1443.0
If we take 2526 away from 3070, we end up with 544.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
842 goes into 5440 6 times with a remainder of 388.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1443.6
If we take 5052 away from 5440, we end up with 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
842 goes into 3880 4 times with a remainder of 512.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1443.64
Subtract 3368 from 3880 to get 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

Step 10:
842 can be fit into 5120 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1443.646
Subtract 5052 from 5120 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 680 by 842, we get 0 with a remainder of 680.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1443.646
Subtract 0 from 680 to get 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
842 goes into 6800 8 times with a remainder of 64.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1443.64608
If we take 6736 away from 6800, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
842 goes into 640 0 times with a remainder of 640.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1443.64608
If we take 0 away from 640, we end up with 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
6400 divided by 842 is 7 with a remainder of 506.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1443.6460807
Subtracting 5894 from 6400 leaves us with 506.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5060, and continue the process.

Step 15:
842 goes into 5060 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1443.64608076
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 5052 from 5060.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1443.64608076, with a leftover of 8e-09.
