We're dividing 9948685 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 9948685.

Moving on to step 1:
42 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 42

On to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 15.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 84 from 99 to get 15.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 154 / 42

On to step 3:
42 goes into 154 3 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 126 away from 154, we end up with 28.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 288 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 288 6 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 236.0
Subtract 252 from 288 to get 36.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 366 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 can be fit into 366 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2368.0
Subtract 336 from 366 to get 30.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 308 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
42 goes into 308 7 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23687.0
Subtract 294 from 308 to get 14.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 145 / 42

On to step 7:
42 can be fit into 145 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 236873.0
Subtract 126 from 145 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 190 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 236873.4
Subtract 168 from 190 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 9:
220 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 236873.45
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.

Moving on to step 10:
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: 236873.452
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 236873.4523
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 236873.45238
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 236873.45238
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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 236873.4523809
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up with 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 15:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 236873.45238095
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.

The quotient of the division is 236873.45238095, and the remainder is 1e-08.
