We're dividing 116985 by 24 
Our goal is to divide 116985 by 24.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 24, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 24

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 11 by 24, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 116 / 24

Advancing to step 3:
The number 24 fits into 116 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 96 from 116, we get 20.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 209 / 24

Let's proceed to step 4:
24 goes into 209 8 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48.0
Deduct 192 from 209 and we're left with 17.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 24

Step 5:
24 can be fit into 178 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 487.0
If we subtract 168 from 178, we get 10.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 105 / 24

On to step 6:
24 can be fit into 105 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4874.0
If we subtract 96 from 105, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
24 goes into 90 3 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4874.3
If we take 72 away from 90, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 180 by 24, we get 7 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4874.37
If we subtract 168 from 180, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
120 divided by 24 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4874.375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 120 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 24, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4874.375
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 24 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4874.375
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4874.375 with a remaining 0.0.
