Let's divide 865242 by 233
We want to divide 865242 by 233.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 233, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 86 / 233

Moving on to step 2:
The number 233 fits into 86 0 times, leaving a remainder of 86.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 86 after subtracting 0 from 86.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 865 / 233

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 233 fits into 865 3 times, leaving a remainder of 166.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 699 from 865 to get 166.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 166 and continue: 1662 / 233

Step 4:
233 goes into 1662 7 times with a remainder of 31.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we take 1631 away from 1662, we end up with 31.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 314 / 233

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 314 by 233, we get 1 with a remainder of 81.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 371.0
Subtracting 233 from 314 leaves us with 81.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 81, then repeat: 812 / 233

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 812 by 233, we get 3 with a remainder of 113.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3713.0
If we take 699 away from 812, we end up with 113.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 233 fits into 1130 4 times, leaving a remainder of 198.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3713.4
Subtracting 932 from 1130 leaves us with 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
1980 divided by 233 is 8 with a remainder of 116.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3713.48
Deduct 1864 from 1980 and we're left with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 1160 by 233, we get 4 and a remainder of 228.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3713.484
If we subtract 932 from 1160, we get 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
233 can be fit into 2280 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 183.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3713.4849
Subtracting 2097 from 2280 leaves us with 183.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1830, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
233 can be fit into 1830 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 199.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3713.48497
Subtracting 1631 from 1830 leaves us with 199.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1990, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 1990 by 233, we get 8 with a remainder of 126.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3713.484978
Subtracting 1864 from 1990 leaves us with 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1260, and continue the process.

Step 13:
233 goes into 1260 5 times with a remainder of 95.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3713.4849785
Subtracting 1165 from 1260 leaves us with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 950 by 233, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3713.48497854
Subtract 932 from 950 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3713.48497854, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
