Let's divide 42786271 by 177
We want to divide 42786271 by 177.

On to step 1:
The number 177 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 177

Step 2:
If we divide 42 by 177, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 427 / 177

Let's proceed to step 3:
177 can be fit into 427 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 354 from 427.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 73, then carry on: 738 / 177

Let's proceed to step 4:
177 can be fit into 738 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 708 away from 738, we end up with 30.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 306 / 177

Step 5:
When dividing 306 by 177, we get 1 with a remainder of 129.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 241.0
Subtracting 177 from 306 leaves us with 129.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 129, then repeat: 1292 / 177

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 1292 by 177, we get 7 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2417.0
Subtract 1239 from 1292 to get 53.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 537 / 177

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 537 by 177, we get 3 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 24173.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 531 from 537.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 61 / 177

Let's proceed to step 8:
61 divided by 177 is 0 with a remainder of 61.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 241730.0
If we subtract 0 from 61, we get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
177 goes into 610 3 times with a remainder of 79.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 241730.3
Subtracting 531 from 610 leaves us with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
177 can be fit into 790 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 82.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 241730.34
If we take 708 away from 790, we end up with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
177 goes into 820 4 times with a remainder of 112.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 241730.344
Deduct 708 from 820 and we're left with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 241730.344, and the remainder is 0.0112.
