Let's divide 949272 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 949272 can be divided by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 94 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
94 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 84 from 94 leaves us with 10.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 109 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 109 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Deduct 84 from 109 and we're left with 25.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 252 / 42

On to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 252 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 226.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 252 from 252.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 7 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2260.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
42 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22601.0
Deduct 42 from 72 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22601.7
If we subtract 294 from 300, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 22601.71
Subtracting 42 from 60 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 180 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22601.714
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
120 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22601.7142
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 22601.71428
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 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 12:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22601.714285
Subtracting 210 from 240 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.

Moving on to step 13:
42 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 22601.7142857
If we subtract 294 from 300, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22601.71428571
Deduct 42 from 60 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Our division results in 22601.71428571 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
