542968 divided by 89 
Our goal is to divide 542968 by 89.

Let's proceed to step 1:
89 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 89

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 54 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 54.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 54 to get 54.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 542 / 89

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 542 by 89, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 534 from 542.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 89 / 89

Step 4:
89 goes into 89 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 61.0
Subtract 89 from 89 to get 0.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 6 / 89

Step 5:
The number 89 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 610.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 89

Step 6:
When dividing 68 by 89, we get 0 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6100.0
Subtract 0 from 68 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
89 goes into 680 7 times with a remainder of 57.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6100.7
If we take 623 away from 680, we end up with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
89 goes into 570 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6100.76
If we take 534 away from 570, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 89, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6100.764
Subtract 356 from 360 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 40 by 89, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6100.764
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
89 goes into 400 4 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6100.76404
Subtracting 356 from 400 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
440 divided by 89 is 4 with a remainder of 84.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6100.764044
If we subtract 356 from 440, we get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6100.764044 and a remainder of 8.4e-06.
