142718 divided by 43 
Let's see how many times 43 fits into 142718.

Let's proceed to step 1:
43 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 43

Going ahead to step 2:
14 divided by 43 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 142 / 43

Step 3:
The number 43 fits into 142 3 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 129 from 142 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 137 / 43

On to step 4:
43 goes into 137 3 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
If we subtract 129 from 137, we get 8.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 81 / 43

On to step 5:
When dividing 81 by 43, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 331.0
Subtracting 43 from 81 leaves us with 38.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 388 / 43

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 388 by 43, we get 9 with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3319.0
Subtracting 387 from 388 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
43 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3319.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
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 8:
If we divide 100 by 43, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3319.02
If we take 86 away from 100, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 9:
43 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3319.023
Subtracting 129 from 140 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 110 by 43, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3319.0232
Subtract 86 from 110 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 43 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3319.02325
Subtracting 215 from 240 leaves us 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 12:
The number 43 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3319.023255
Subtract 215 from 250 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3319.023255 with a remaining 3.5e-06.
