We're dividing 42977449 by 496 
Our goal is to divide 42977449 by 496.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 496, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 496

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 42 by 496, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 496

Step 3:
496 can be fit into 429 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 429.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 429 and we're left with 429.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 429, then repeat: 4297 / 496

Step 4:
4297 divided by 496 is 8 with a remainder of 329.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 3968 from 4297 to get 329.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 329, then repeat: 3297 / 496

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 3297 by 496, we get 6 and a remainder of 321.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 86.0
Deduct 2976 from 3297 and we're left with 321.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 321, then carry on: 3214 / 496

On to step 6:
3214 divided by 496 is 6 with a remainder of 238.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 866.0
The remainder is 238 after subtracting 2976 from 3214.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 238 and continue with: 2384 / 496

Advancing to step 7:
The number 496 fits into 2384 4 times, leaving a remainder of 400.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8664.0
Subtracting 1984 from 2384 leaves us with 400.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 400, then carry on: 4009 / 496

Let's proceed to step 8:
496 can be fit into 4009 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 86648.0
Subtract 3968 from 4009 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 410 by 496, we get 0 and a remainder of 410.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 86648.0
Subtract 0 from 410 to get 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 496 fits into 4100 8 times, leaving a remainder of 132.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 86648.08
If we take 3968 away from 4100, we end up with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
496 goes into 1320 2 times with a remainder of 328.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86648.082
Subtracting 992 from 1320 leaves us with 328.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3280, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
496 can be fit into 3280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 304.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 86648.0826
The remainder is 304 after subtracting 2976 from 3280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 3040 by 496, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 86648.08266
Subtract 2976 from 3040 to 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.

Our division results in 86648.08266 with a remaining 6.4e-05.
