We look at the division of 504942 by 24 
Our goal is to divide 504942 by 24.

Advancing to step 1:
24 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 24

Advancing to step 2:
The number 24 fits into 50 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 48 away from 50, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 24

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 24 fits into 24 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 24 from 24 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 24

Moving on to step 4:
24 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 210.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 94 / 24

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 94 by 24, we get 3 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2103.0
If we take 72 away from 94, we end up with 22.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 222 / 24

Advancing to step 6:
The number 24 fits into 222 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21039.0
If we take 216 away from 222, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
24 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21039.2
Deduct 48 from 60 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 120 by 24, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21039.25
If we take 120 away from 120, 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
24 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21039.25
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
0 divided by 24 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 21039.25
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 21039.25 with a balance of 0.0.
