We're dividing 542455 by 18 
Our goal is to divide 542455 by 18.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 18 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 18

Step 2:
If we divide 54 by 18, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 54 from 54 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 18

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 2 by 18, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 18

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 24 by 18, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 301.0
Deduct 18 from 24 and we're left with 6.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 18

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 18 fits into 65 3 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3013.0
If we subtract 54 from 65, we get 11.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 115 / 18

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 115 by 18, we get 6 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 30136.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 108 from 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
18 can be fit into 70 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30136.3
If we subtract 54 from 70, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 18, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30136.38
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
18 can be fit into 160 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 30136.388
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 30136.388, and the remainder is 0.0016.
