We look at the division of 42977789 by 167 
We want to figure out the number of times 42977789 can be divided by 167.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 167, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 167

Step 2:
167 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 429 / 167

Step 3:
If we divide 429 by 167, we get 2 and a remainder of 95.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 334 from 429, we get 95.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 95, then carry on: 957 / 167

Step 4:
The number 167 fits into 957 5 times, leaving a remainder of 122.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 835 from 957 and we're left with 122.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 122 and repeat the process: 1227 / 167

Advancing to step 5:
1227 divided by 167 is 7 with a remainder of 58.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 257.0
Subtracting 1169 from 1227 leaves us with 58.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 587 / 167

On to step 6:
167 can be fit into 587 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2573.0
Deduct 501 from 587 and we're left with 86.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 868 / 167

Advancing to step 7:
167 can be fit into 868 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 25735.0
If we take 835 away from 868, we end up with 33.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 339 / 167

Moving on to step 8:
167 goes into 339 2 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 257352.0
If we take 334 away from 339, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 167, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 257352.0
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
167 can be fit into 500 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 166.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 257352.02
If we take 334 away from 500, we end up with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 167 fits into 1660 9 times, leaving a remainder of 157.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 257352.029
Deduct 1503 from 1660 and we're left with 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1570, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 1570 by 167, we get 9 with a remainder of 67.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 257352.0299
If we take 1503 away from 1570, we end up with 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

The final result is 257352.0299 with a remainder of 0.00067.
