242831 divided by 43 
We want to figure out the number of times 242831 can be divided by 43.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 43

Advancing to step 2:
43 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 242 / 43

Step 3:
If we divide 242 by 43, we get 5 and a remainder of 27.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 215 from 242.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 278 / 43

On to step 4:
When dividing 278 by 43, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 258 from 278.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 203 / 43

Step 5:
43 can be fit into 203 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 564.0
If we take 172 away from 203, we end up with 31.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 311 / 43

On to step 6:
43 can be fit into 311 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5647.0
Subtract 301 from 311 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
100 divided by 43 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5647.2
If we subtract 86 from 100, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 43, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5647.23
If we subtract 129 from 140, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
43 can be fit into 110 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5647.232
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 86 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
43 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5647.2325
Deduct 215 from 240 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
43 goes into 250 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5647.23255
Subtracting 215 from 250 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

The final result is 5647.23255 with a remainder of 3.5e-05.
