42258931 divided by 253 
We want to divide 42258931 by 253.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 253, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 253

Step 2:
42 divided by 253 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 422 / 253

Step 3:
When dividing 422 by 253, we get 1 with a remainder of 169.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 253 from 422 and we're left with 169.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 169 and continue: 1695 / 253

Going ahead to step 4:
253 can be fit into 1695 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 177.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 1518 from 1695 to get 177.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 177, then repeat: 1778 / 253

On to step 5:
When dividing 1778 by 253, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167.0
Subtract 1771 from 1778 to get 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 253

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 79 by 253, we get 0 and a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1670.0
If we take 0 away from 79, we end up with 79.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 79, then carry on: 793 / 253

Step 7:
When dividing 793 by 253, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16703.0
If we take 759 away from 793, we end up with 34.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 341 / 253

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 253 fits into 341 1 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 167031.0
The remainder is 88 after subtracting 253 from 341.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 880 by 253, we get 3 and a remainder of 121.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 167031.3
If we subtract 759 from 880, we get 121.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
253 can be fit into 1210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 198.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167031.34
If we subtract 1012 from 1210, we get 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
253 goes into 1980 7 times with a remainder of 209.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167031.347
Deduct 1771 from 1980 and we're left with 209.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2090, and continue the process.

Step 12:
2090 divided by 253 is 8 with a remainder of 66.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 167031.3478
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 2024 from 2090.
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 13:
When dividing 660 by 253, we get 2 with a remainder of 154.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 167031.34782
Subtracting 506 from 660 leaves us with 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 1540 by 253, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 167031.347826
Subtract 1518 from 1540 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 220 by 253, we get 0 and a remainder of 220.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 167031.347826
Subtracting 0 from 220 leaves us with 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
253 can be fit into 2200 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 176.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167031.34782608
If we subtract 2024 from 2200, we get 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 167031.34782608 and a remainder of 1.76e-07.
