242254 divided by 83 
We're looking to find how many times 83 goes into 242254.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 83 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 83

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 24 by 83, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 242 / 83

Let's proceed to step 3:
83 can be fit into 242 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 76.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 166 away from 242, we end up with 76.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 76, then repeat: 762 / 83

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 83 fits into 762 9 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 747 from 762.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 155 / 83

On to step 5:
When dividing 155 by 83, we get 1 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 291.0
If we take 83 away from 155, we end up with 72.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 72, then carry on: 724 / 83

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 724 by 83, we get 8 with a remainder of 60.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2918.0
Subtract 664 from 724 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
83 goes into 600 7 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2918.7
Subtract 581 from 600 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
190 divided by 83 is 2 with a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2918.72
Deduct 166 from 190 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 83 fits into 240 2 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2918.722
If we take 166 away from 240, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2918.722, and the remainder is 0.0074.
