24842 ÷ 10 
We want to figure out the number of times 24842 can be divided by 10.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 10 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 10

Let's proceed to step 2:
24 divided by 10 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 20 from 24.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 10

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 10 fits into 48 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 40 away from 48, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 84 / 10

On to step 4:
10 goes into 84 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 248.0
Subtract 80 from 84 to get 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 10

On to step 5:
42 divided by 10 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2484.0
If we take 40 away from 42, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
20 divided by 10 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2484.2
If we subtract 20 from 20, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2484.2
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 8:
10 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2484.2
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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.

The final outcome is 2484.2, with a leftover of 0.0.
