We're dividing 542044 by 65 
We want to divide 542044 by 65.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 65, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 65

Moving on to step 2:
54 divided by 65 is 0 with a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 542 / 65

Step 3:
When dividing 542 by 65, we get 8 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 520 from 542.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 220 / 65

Let's proceed to step 4:
65 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 195 from 220.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 254 / 65

On to step 5:
65 can be fit into 254 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 833.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 195 from 254.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 594 / 65

On to step 6:
65 can be fit into 594 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8339.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 585 from 594.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 65 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8339.1
If we take 65 away from 90, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 65 fits into 250 3 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8339.13
Subtract 195 from 250 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
65 goes into 550 8 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8339.138
If we subtract 520 from 550, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 300 by 65, we get 4 and a remainder of 40.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8339.1384
Deduct 260 from 300 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
65 can be fit into 400 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8339.13846
Subtract 390 from 400 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.

On to step 12:
65 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8339.138461
Subtracting 65 from 100 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.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 65 fits into 350 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8339.1384615
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 325 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
250 divided by 65 is 3 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8339.13846153
Subtracting 195 from 250 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8339.13846153 and a remainder of 5.5e-08.
