Let's divide 42227 by 83
We want to divide 42227 by 83.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 83 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 42 / 83

Advancing to step 2:
The number 83 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 422 / 83

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 422 by 83, we get 5 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 415 away from 422, we end up with 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 83

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 72 by 83, we get 0 and a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
If we take 0 away from 72, we end up with 72.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 727 / 83

Let's proceed to step 5:
83 goes into 727 8 times with a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 508.0
Subtract 664 from 727 to get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
630 divided by 83 is 7 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 508.7
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 581 from 630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
83 can be fit into 490 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 508.75
If we take 415 away from 490, we end up with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 750 by 83, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 508.759
Subtracting 747 from 750 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
83 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 508.759
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 83, we get 3 with a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 508.75903
If we take 249 away from 300, we end up with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
83 can be fit into 510 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 508.759036
Subtracting 498 from 510 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 120 by 83, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 508.7590361
Deduct 83 from 120 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 370 by 83, we get 4 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 508.75903614
Deduct 332 from 370 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 508.75903614 with a balance of 3.8e-08.
