70875983 divided by 42 
We want to divide 70875983 by 42.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 70 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 70 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 70 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 288 / 42

On to step 3:
288 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 252 from 288 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 367 / 42

Step 4:
42 goes into 367 8 times with a remainder of 31.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 168.0
Subtract 336 from 367 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 315 / 42

Step 5:
42 can be fit into 315 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1687.0
Subtract 294 from 315 to get 21.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 219 / 42

Step 6:
42 goes into 219 5 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16875.0
If we take 210 away from 219, we end up with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 42

On to step 7:
When dividing 98 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 168752.0
If we take 84 away from 98, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 143 / 42

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 143 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1687523.0
Subtract 126 from 143 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
42 can be fit into 170 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1687523.4
Subtracting 168 from 170 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
42 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1687523.4
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1687523.404
Subtract 168 from 200 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
42 can be fit into 320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1687523.4047
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 294 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
42 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1687523.40476
If we subtract 252 from 260, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1687523.404761
If we take 42 away from 80, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
If we divide 380 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1687523.4047619
Deduct 378 from 380 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
42 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1687523.4047619
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1687523.4047619 with a remaining 2e-08.
