We divide 42738897 by 856
We're looking to find how many times 856 goes into 42738897.

Going ahead to step 1:
856 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 856

Advancing to step 2:
856 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 42 leaves us with 42.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 427 / 856

Step 3:
427 divided by 856 is 0 with a remainder of 427.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 427, we end up with 427.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 427 and continue with: 4273 / 856

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 856 fits into 4273 4 times, leaving a remainder of 849.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 3424 from 4273 leaves us with 849.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 849 and continue with: 8498 / 856

On to step 5:
856 can be fit into 8498 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 794.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtract 7704 from 8498 to get 794.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 794, then carry on: 7948 / 856

Step 6:
7948 divided by 856 is 9 with a remainder of 244.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 499.0
The remainder is 244 after subtracting 7704 from 7948.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 244 and continue with: 2449 / 856

Advancing to step 7:
2449 divided by 856 is 2 with a remainder of 737.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4992.0
Subtracting 1712 from 2449 leaves us with 737.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 737 and continue with: 7377 / 856

Let's proceed to step 8:
856 goes into 7377 8 times with a remainder of 529.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 49928.0
Subtracting 6848 from 7377 leaves us with 529.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5290, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 5290 by 856, we get 6 and a remainder of 154.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49928.6
Deduct 5136 from 5290 and we're left with 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
856 goes into 1540 1 times with a remainder of 684.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 49928.61
Subtracting 856 from 1540 leaves us with 684.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 6840 by 856, we get 7 with a remainder of 848.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49928.617
The remainder is 848 after subtracting 5992 from 6840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
856 goes into 8480 9 times with a remainder of 776.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49928.6179
If we take 7704 away from 8480, we end up with 776.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 856 fits into 7760 9 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49928.61799
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 7704 from 7760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 49928.61799, and the remainder is 5.6e-05.
