We look at the division of 42697243 by 398 
We're looking to find how many times 398 goes into 42697243.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 398, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 398

Advancing to step 2:
398 can be fit into 42 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 426 / 398

Moving on to step 3:
426 divided by 398 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 398 from 426 leaves us with 28.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 289 / 398

Step 4:
398 goes into 289 0 times with a remainder of 289.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 289 and we're left with 289.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 289 and repeat the process: 2897 / 398

Advancing to step 5:
2897 divided by 398 is 7 with a remainder of 111.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 107.0
The remainder is 111 after subtracting 2786 from 2897.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 111 and repeat the process: 1112 / 398

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 1112 by 398, we get 2 with a remainder of 316.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1072.0
Deduct 796 from 1112 and we're left with 316.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 316 and continue with: 3164 / 398

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 398 fits into 3164 7 times, leaving a remainder of 378.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10727.0
Subtracting 2786 from 3164 leaves us with 378.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 378 and continue with: 3783 / 398

Going ahead to step 8:
398 can be fit into 3783 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 201.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107279.0
Deduct 3582 from 3783 and we're left with 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2010, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
398 can be fit into 2010 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 107279.5
Subtracting 1990 from 2010 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
200 divided by 398 is 0 with a remainder of 200.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107279.5
If we subtract 0 from 200, we get 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 398 fits into 2000 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107279.505
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 1990 from 2000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 100 by 398, we get 0 and a remainder of 100.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107279.505
Subtract 0 from 100 to get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
1000 divided by 398 is 2 with a remainder of 204.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107279.50502
If we take 796 away from 1000, we end up with 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 2040 by 398, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107279.505025
If we take 1990 away from 2040, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
If we divide 500 by 398, we get 1 and a remainder of 102.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107279.5050251
If we take 398 away from 500, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 1020 by 398, we get 2 with a remainder of 224.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107279.50502512
If we subtract 796 from 1020, we get 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 107279.50502512, and the remainder is 2.24e-07.
