We divide 17942 by 82
Let's see how many times 82 fits into 17942.

Going ahead to step 1:
82 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 82

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 17 by 82, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 179 / 82

Moving on to step 3:
82 can be fit into 179 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 164 away from 179, we end up with 15.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 154 / 82

On to step 4:
If we divide 154 by 82, we get 1 and a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 82 from 154.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 72 and repeat the process: 722 / 82

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 82 fits into 722 8 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 218.0
Subtract 656 from 722 to get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
The number 82 fits into 660 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 218.8
If we take 656 away from 660, we end up 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.

Step 7:
The number 82 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 218.8
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
82 can be fit into 400 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 72.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 218.804
If we subtract 328 from 400, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 720 by 82, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 218.8048
Subtracting 656 from 720 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
82 goes into 640 7 times with a remainder of 66.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 218.80487
If we take 574 away from 640, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
660 divided by 82 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 218.804878
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 656 from 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 82 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 218.804878
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 400 by 82, we get 4 and a remainder of 72.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 218.80487804
Subtract 328 from 400 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Our division results in 218.80487804 with a remaining 7.2e-08.
