Let's divide 42874397 by 115
Let's see how many times 115 fits into 42874397.

Step 1:
The number 115 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 115

Step 2:
42 divided by 115 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 42, we get 42.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 428 / 115

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 428 by 115, we get 3 and a remainder of 83.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 345 away from 428, we end up with 83.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 83 and continue with: 837 / 115

Moving on to step 4:
115 goes into 837 7 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
Deduct 805 from 837 and we're left with 32.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 324 / 115

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 324 by 115, we get 2 and a remainder of 94.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 372.0
If we subtract 230 from 324, we get 94.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 94, then repeat: 943 / 115

On to step 6:
If we divide 943 by 115, we get 8 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3728.0
Deduct 920 from 943 and we're left with 23.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 239 / 115

Advancing to step 7:
The number 115 fits into 239 2 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37282.0
If we subtract 230 from 239, we get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 115

Let's proceed to step 8:
115 goes into 97 0 times with a remainder of 97.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 372820.0
If we take 0 away from 97, we end up with 97.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 970, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
115 goes into 970 8 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 372820.8
If we subtract 920 from 970, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
115 can be fit into 500 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 372820.84
Subtracting 460 from 500 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 11:
115 can be fit into 400 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 372820.843
If we take 345 away from 400, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 550 by 115, we get 4 with a remainder of 90.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 372820.8434
Deduct 460 from 550 and we're left with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
900 divided by 115 is 7 with a remainder of 95.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 372820.84347
If we subtract 805 from 900, we get 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
950 divided by 115 is 8 with a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 372820.843478
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 920 from 950.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
115 can be fit into 300 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 372820.8434782
Subtract 230 from 300 to get 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
700 divided by 115 is 6 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 372820.84347826
Subtract 690 from 700 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Our division results in 372820.84347826 with a remaining 1e-08.
