We're dividing 642455 by 24 
We want to divide 642455 by 24.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 24, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 24

Advancing to step 2:
The number 24 fits into 64 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 48 from 64 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 162 / 24

Going ahead to step 3:
24 can be fit into 162 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 144 from 162 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 184 / 24

On to step 4:
24 goes into 184 7 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 267.0
Subtracting 168 from 184 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 165 / 24

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 24 fits into 165 6 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2676.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 144 from 165.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 215 / 24

On to step 6:
If we divide 215 by 24, we get 8 and a remainder of 23.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26768.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 192 from 215.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 24, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26768.9
If we take 216 away from 230, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 140 by 24, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26768.95
If we take 120 away from 140, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
200 divided by 24 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26768.958
If we subtract 192 from 200, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 24, we get 3 and a remainder of 8.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26768.9583
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
24 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26768.95833
Subtract 72 from 80 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 26768.95833 with a remaining 8e-06.
