We divide 42809617 by 287
Our goal is to divide 42809617 by 287.

Advancing to step 1:
287 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 287

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 42 by 287, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 428 / 287

On to step 3:
When dividing 428 by 287, we get 1 with a remainder of 141.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 287 from 428, we get 141.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 141 and repeat the process: 1410 / 287

Let's proceed to step 4:
287 goes into 1410 4 times with a remainder of 262.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 1148 away from 1410, we end up with 262.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 262, then repeat: 2629 / 287

Let's proceed to step 5:
2629 divided by 287 is 9 with a remainder of 46.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 149.0
If we subtract 2583 from 2629, we get 46.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 466 / 287

Let's proceed to step 6:
466 divided by 287 is 1 with a remainder of 179.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1491.0
The remainder is 179 after subtracting 287 from 466.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 179, then repeat: 1791 / 287

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 287 fits into 1791 6 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14916.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 1722 from 1791.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 697 / 287

Step 8:
When dividing 697 by 287, we get 2 with a remainder of 123.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149162.0
If we subtract 574 from 697, we get 123.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 1230 by 287, we get 4 and a remainder of 82.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 149162.4
Deduct 1148 from 1230 and we're left with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
287 can be fit into 820 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 246.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149162.42
If we take 574 away from 820, we end up with 246.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 2460 by 287, we get 8 and a remainder of 164.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 149162.428
If we subtract 2296 from 2460, we get 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
287 can be fit into 1640 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 205.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 149162.4285
If we subtract 1435 from 1640, we get 205.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2050, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 2050 by 287, we get 7 and a remainder of 41.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149162.42857
Subtract 2009 from 2050 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 287 fits into 410 1 times, leaving a remainder of 123.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149162.428571
The remainder is 123 after subtracting 287 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
287 goes into 1230 4 times with a remainder of 82.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 149162.4285714
If we take 1148 away from 1230, we end up with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
287 can be fit into 820 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 246.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 149162.42857142
If we subtract 574 from 820, we get 246.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 149162.42857142 and a remainder of 2.46e-07.
