We look at the division of 42716481 by 554 
We want to divide 42716481 by 554.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 554 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 554

Let's proceed to step 2:
554 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 427 / 554

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 427 by 554, we get 0 and a remainder of 427.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 427 and we're left with 427.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 427, then repeat: 4271 / 554

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 4271 by 554, we get 7 and a remainder of 393.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 3878 from 4271 leaves us with 393.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 393, then carry on: 3936 / 554

Advancing to step 5:
554 goes into 3936 7 times with a remainder of 58.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 77.0
If we take 3878 away from 3936, we end up with 58.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 58, then repeat: 584 / 554

Moving on to step 6:
554 can be fit into 584 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 771.0
Subtract 554 from 584 to get 30.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 308 / 554

Advancing to step 7:
308 divided by 554 is 0 with a remainder of 308.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7710.0
If we take 0 away from 308, we end up with 308.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 308 and continue: 3081 / 554

Advancing to step 8:
The number 554 fits into 3081 5 times, leaving a remainder of 311.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77105.0
Deduct 2770 from 3081 and we're left with 311.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
3110 divided by 554 is 5 with a remainder of 340.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 77105.5
The remainder is 340 after subtracting 2770 from 3110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
3400 divided by 554 is 6 with a remainder of 76.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 77105.56
If we subtract 3324 from 3400, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
554 goes into 760 1 times with a remainder of 206.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 77105.561
Subtract 554 from 760 to get 206.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 554 fits into 2060 3 times, leaving a remainder of 398.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 77105.5613
Subtract 1662 from 2060 to get 398.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3980, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
554 goes into 3980 7 times with a remainder of 102.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 77105.56137
Deduct 3878 from 3980 and we're left with 102.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

Step 14:
1020 divided by 554 is 1 with a remainder of 466.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 77105.561371
The remainder is 466 after subtracting 554 from 1020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
554 goes into 4660 8 times with a remainder of 228.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 77105.5613718
If we take 4432 away from 4660, we end up with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
554 goes into 2280 4 times with a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 77105.56137184
If we subtract 2216 from 2280, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

The final result is 77105.56137184 with a remainder of 6.4e-08.
