61631 ÷ 42 
Our goal is to divide 61631 by 42.

On to step 1:
6 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 61 / 42

On to step 2:
42 goes into 61 1 times with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 61 to get 19.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 196 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 goes into 196 4 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 168 from 196.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 283 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 283 6 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 146.0
Subtract 252 from 283 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 311 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1467.0
Deduct 294 from 311 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 170 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1467.4
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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
20 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1467.4
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
42 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1467.404
If we subtract 168 from 200, we 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 320 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1467.4047
Deduct 294 from 320 and we're left with 26.
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 10:
260 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1467.40476
Deduct 252 from 260 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 80 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1467.404761
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 42 from 80.
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 12:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1467.4047619
If we take 378 away from 380, we end up 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.

On to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1467.4047619
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.

After the division, we end up with 1467.4047619 and a remainder of 2e-08.
