76042 ÷ 42 
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 76042.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 76 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
42 can be fit into 76 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 76 to get 34.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 340 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 44 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 44 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 181.0
Deduct 42 from 44 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
22 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1810.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1810.5
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
100 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1810.52
Subtract 84 from 100 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 160 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1810.523
Subtracting 126 from 160 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1810.5238
Deduct 336 from 340 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1810.5238
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1810.523809
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 378 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1810.5238095
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up with 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 13:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1810.52380952
Subtracting 84 from 100 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1810.52380952 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
