314548 divided by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 314548 can be divided by 42.

Step 1:
42 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 31 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 31, we get 31.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 314 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 314 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 20.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 294 from 314 to get 20.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 205 / 42

Step 4:
When dividing 205 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 37.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74.0
Subtracting 168 from 205 leaves us with 37.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 374 / 42

Step 5:
The number 42 fits into 374 8 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 748.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 336 from 374.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 388 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 388 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 10.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7489.0
If we subtract 378 from 388, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7489.2
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.

Moving on to step 8:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7489.23
If we subtract 126 from 160, we get 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:
42 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7489.238
If we take 336 away from 340, we end up 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7489.238
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7489.23809
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:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7489.238095
Deduct 210 from 220 and we're left 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:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7489.2380952
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 160 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7489.23809523
Deduct 126 from 160 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 7489.23809523, and the remainder is 3.4e-08.
