Advancing to step 1:
The number 981 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 981

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 981 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 422 / 981

Step 3:
981 can be fit into 422 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 422.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 422 to get 422.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 422 and continue with: 4222 / 981

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 4222 by 981, we get 4 with a remainder of 298.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 3924 from 4222 to get 298.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 298 and continue with: 2981 / 981

Advancing to step 5:
2981 divided by 981 is 3 with a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we subtract 2943 from 2981, we get 38.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 382 / 981

Advancing to step 6:
382 divided by 981 is 0 with a remainder of 382.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 430.0
Deduct 0 from 382 and we're left with 382.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 382 and continue with: 3825 / 981

Going ahead to step 7:
981 can be fit into 3825 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 882.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4303.0
The remainder is 882 after subtracting 2943 from 3825.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 882, then repeat: 8822 / 981

Step 8:
981 goes into 8822 8 times with a remainder of 974.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43038.0
If we take 7848 away from 8822, we end up with 974.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 9740 by 981, we get 9 and a remainder of 911.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43038.9
If we take 8829 away from 9740, we end up with 911.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
9110 divided by 981 is 9 with a remainder of 281.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43038.99
If we subtract 8829 from 9110, we get 281.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2810, and continue the process.

Our division results in 43038.99 with a remaining 0.281.
