We divide 42168117 by 172
Let's see how many times 172 fits into 42168117.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 42 / 172

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 42 by 172, we get 0 with a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 421 / 172

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 421 by 172, we get 2 and a remainder of 77.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 344 from 421 leaves us with 77.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 77, then repeat: 776 / 172

Advancing to step 4:
The number 172 fits into 776 4 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 688 from 776 leaves us with 88.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 88, then repeat: 888 / 172

Step 5:
888 divided by 172 is 5 with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 245.0
Deduct 860 from 888 and we're left with 28.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 281 / 172

Let's proceed to step 6:
281 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 109.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2451.0
The remainder is 109 after subtracting 172 from 281.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 109, then repeat: 1091 / 172

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 172 fits into 1091 6 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24516.0
If we take 1032 away from 1091, we end up with 59.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 59, then repeat: 597 / 172

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 597 by 172, we get 3 with a remainder of 81.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 245163.0
Subtract 516 from 597 to get 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
172 can be fit into 810 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 122.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 245163.4
If we take 688 away from 810, we end up with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
172 can be fit into 1220 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 245163.47
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 1204 from 1220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 160 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 160.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 245163.47
If we subtract 0 from 160, we get 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 1600 by 172, we get 9 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 245163.4709
If we subtract 1548 from 1600, we get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 520 by 172, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 245163.47093
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 516 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 40 by 172, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 245163.47093
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

On to step 15:
172 goes into 400 2 times with a remainder of 56.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 245163.4709302
Subtract 344 from 400 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 560 by 172, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 245163.47093023
Subtract 516 from 560 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 245163.47093023, with a leftover of 4.4e-08.
