We're dividing 442497 by 99 
Let's see how many times 99 fits into 442497.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 99, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 44 / 99

Moving on to step 2:
99 goes into 44 0 times with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 44 and we're left with 44.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 442 / 99

Advancing to step 3:
The number 99 fits into 442 4 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 396 from 442 to get 46.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 464 / 99

Advancing to step 4:
464 divided by 99 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 44.0
Subtract 396 from 464 to get 68.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 68 and repeat the process: 689 / 99

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 689 by 99, we get 6 with a remainder of 95.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 446.0
Subtracting 594 from 689 leaves us with 95.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 95 and repeat the process: 957 / 99

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 957 by 99, we get 9 and a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4469.0
Subtracting 891 from 957 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 660 by 99, we get 6 and a remainder of 66.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4469.6
If we subtract 594 from 660, we get 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 660 by 99, we get 6 with a remainder of 66.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4469.66
Subtracting 594 from 660 leaves us with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4469.66 with a balance of 0.066.
