We divide 22426768 by 531
We want to divide 22426768 by 531.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 531 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 531

Step 2:
The number 531 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 22, we get 22.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 224 / 531

Step 3:
When dividing 224 by 531, we get 0 with a remainder of 224.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 224 to get 224.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 224, then carry on: 2242 / 531

Step 4:
When dividing 2242 by 531, we get 4 with a remainder of 118.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 2124 from 2242 and we're left with 118.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 118 and continue: 1186 / 531

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1186 by 531, we get 2 with a remainder of 124.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 1062 from 1186 leaves us with 124.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 124 and continue with: 1247 / 531

On to step 6:
When dividing 1247 by 531, we get 2 with a remainder of 185.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 422.0
If we take 1062 away from 1247, we end up with 185.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 185, then repeat: 1856 / 531

Advancing to step 7:
The number 531 fits into 1856 3 times, leaving a remainder of 263.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4223.0
If we subtract 1593 from 1856, we get 263.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 263, then repeat: 2638 / 531

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 2638 by 531, we get 4 and a remainder of 514.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42234.0
Subtracting 2124 from 2638 leaves us with 514.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 5140 by 531, we get 9 with a remainder of 361.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 42234.9
Subtract 4779 from 5140 to get 361.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3610, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 3610 by 531, we get 6 and a remainder of 424.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42234.96
If we take 3186 away from 3610, we end up with 424.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 4240 by 531, we get 7 and a remainder of 523.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42234.967
If we take 3717 away from 4240, we end up with 523.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5230, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
531 goes into 5230 9 times with a remainder of 451.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42234.9679
If we take 4779 away from 5230, we end up with 451.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4510, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 4510 by 531, we get 8 and a remainder of 262.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42234.96798
Subtracting 4248 from 4510 leaves us with 262.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
531 can be fit into 2620 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 496.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 42234.967984
If we take 2124 away from 2620, we end up with 496.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4960, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
4960 divided by 531 is 9 with a remainder of 181.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42234.9679849
Deduct 4779 from 4960 and we're left with 181.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
If we divide 1810 by 531, we get 3 and a remainder of 217.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42234.96798493
If we take 1593 away from 1810, we end up with 217.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2170, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 42234.96798493, and the remainder is 2.17e-07.
