Let's divide 38802 by 42
We want to divide 38802 by 42.

Step 1:
3 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 42

Step 2:
38 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 388 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 388 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 378 from 388 and we're left with 10.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 100 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 92.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 162 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
162 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 36.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 923.0
Deduct 126 from 162 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 923.8
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.

On to step 7:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 923.85
If we subtract 210 from 240, 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 8:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 923.857
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
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: 923.8571
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.

Advancing to step 10:
42 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 923.85714
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 923.857142
Subtract 84 from 120 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 360 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 923.8571428
If we subtract 336 from 360, we 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.

Advancing to step 13:
42 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 923.85714285
Subtract 210 from 240 to 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.

The final outcome is 923.85714285, with a leftover of 3e-08.
