15462578 divided by 842 
We want to figure out the number of times 15462578 can be divided by 842.

Going ahead to step 1:
842 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 842

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 842 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 154 / 842

Advancing to step 3:
The number 842 fits into 154 0 times, leaving a remainder of 154.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 154 after subtracting 0 from 154.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 154, then repeat: 1546 / 842

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 1546 by 842, we get 1 with a remainder of 704.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 842 from 1546 and we're left with 704.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 704, then repeat: 7042 / 842

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 7042 by 842, we get 8 and a remainder of 306.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 6736 away from 7042, we end up with 306.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 306, then carry on: 3065 / 842

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 3065 by 842, we get 3 with a remainder of 539.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 183.0
Subtracting 2526 from 3065 leaves us with 539.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 539 and repeat the process: 5397 / 842

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 5397 by 842, we get 6 and a remainder of 345.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1836.0
The remainder is 345 after subtracting 5052 from 5397.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 345 and continue: 3458 / 842

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 842 fits into 3458 4 times, leaving a remainder of 90.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18364.0
If we take 3368 away from 3458, we end up with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
842 can be fit into 900 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18364.1
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 842 from 900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 10:
842 can be fit into 580 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 580.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18364.1
Subtract 0 from 580 to get 580.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
842 can be fit into 5800 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 748.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18364.106
If we subtract 5052 from 5800, we get 748.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
842 can be fit into 7480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 744.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18364.1068
If we subtract 6736 from 7480, we get 744.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7440, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 842 fits into 7440 8 times, leaving a remainder of 704.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18364.10688
The remainder is 704 after subtracting 6736 from 7440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18364.10688 with a remaining 0.000704.
