242849 divided by 5 
We want to divide 242849 by 5.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 5

Advancing to step 2:
5 can be fit into 24 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 20 from 24 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 5

Let's proceed to step 3:
5 can be fit into 42 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Deduct 40 from 42 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 5

Advancing to step 4:
5 goes into 28 5 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 485.0
If we subtract 25 from 28, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 5

Let's proceed to step 5:
5 can be fit into 34 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4856.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 30 from 34.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 5

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 5 fits into 49 9 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 48569.0
Subtracting 45 from 49 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
5 can be fit into 40 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48569.8
If we subtract 40 from 40, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 5 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48569.8
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
5 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48569.8
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 48569.8 and a remainder of 0.0.
