We divide 42856816 by 249
We want to divide 42856816 by 249.

Going ahead to step 1:
249 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 249

Step 2:
249 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
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 / 249

On to step 3:
249 can be fit into 428 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 179.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 249 from 428 and we're left with 179.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 179 and repeat the process: 1795 / 249

Moving on to step 4:
249 can be fit into 1795 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 1743 from 1795 to get 52.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 526 / 249

Going ahead to step 5:
249 goes into 526 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172.0
Subtracting 498 from 526 leaves us with 28.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 288 / 249

On to step 6:
249 can be fit into 288 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1721.0
Subtract 249 from 288 to get 39.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 391 / 249

Let's proceed to step 7:
249 goes into 391 1 times with a remainder of 142.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17211.0
Subtract 249 from 391 to get 142.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 142, then repeat: 1426 / 249

Step 8:
The number 249 fits into 1426 5 times, leaving a remainder of 181.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 172115.0
The remainder is 181 after subtracting 1245 from 1426.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 249 fits into 1810 7 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172115.7
If we subtract 1743 from 1810, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
249 goes into 670 2 times with a remainder of 172.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172115.72
Subtract 498 from 670 to get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
1720 divided by 249 is 6 with a remainder of 226.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 172115.726
Deduct 1494 from 1720 and we're left with 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
249 can be fit into 2260 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 172115.7269
If we take 2241 away from 2260, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 13:
249 can be fit into 190 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 190.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 172115.7269
Subtract 0 from 190 to get 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1900, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 1900 by 249, we get 7 with a remainder of 157.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 172115.726907
Deduct 1743 from 1900 and we're left with 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1570, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
1570 divided by 249 is 6 with a remainder of 76.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 172115.7269076
Subtracting 1494 from 1570 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
249 can be fit into 760 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 172115.72690763
If we subtract 747 from 760, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Our division results in 172115.72690763 with a remaining 1.3e-08.
