We're dividing 24720 by 45 
Our goal is to divide 24720 by 45.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 45 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 45

Step 2:
When dividing 24 by 45, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 247 / 45

Let's proceed to step 3:
247 divided by 45 is 5 with a remainder of 22.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 225 from 247 leaves us with 22.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 222 / 45

Advancing to step 4:
222 divided by 45 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtracting 180 from 222 leaves us with 42.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 420 / 45

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 420 by 45, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 549.0
If we subtract 405 from 420, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
45 goes into 150 3 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 549.3
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 135 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 150 by 45, we get 3 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 549.33
If we take 135 away from 150, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The final result is 549.33 with a remainder of 0.015.
