242720 divided by 28 
Our goal is to divide 242720 by 28.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 28, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 28

On to step 2:
28 goes into 24 0 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 242 / 28

Let's proceed to step 3:
28 goes into 242 8 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 224 from 242, we get 18.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 187 / 28

Let's proceed to step 4:
28 goes into 187 6 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 86.0
Subtract 168 from 187 to get 19.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 192 / 28

On to step 5:
If we divide 192 by 28, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 866.0
Subtract 168 from 192 to get 24.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 240 / 28

Moving on to step 6:
240 divided by 28 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8668.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
28 goes into 160 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8668.5
Deduct 140 from 160 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
If we divide 200 by 28, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8668.57
Deduct 196 from 200 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
28 goes into 40 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8668.571
Subtract 28 from 40 to 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.

Advancing to step 10:
28 goes into 120 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8668.5714
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 112 from 120.
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:
28 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8668.57142
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 28 fits into 240 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8668.571428
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
160 divided by 28 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8668.5714285
Subtract 140 from 160 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8668.57142857
Subtract 196 from 200 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8668.57142857 with a remaining 4e-09.
