We divide 788925 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 788925 can be divided by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 78 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 42 from 78 leaves us with 36.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 goes into 368 8 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 336 from 368 and we're left with 32.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 329 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
329 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 35.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187.0
Subtracting 294 from 329 leaves us with 35.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 352 / 42

On to step 5:
42 goes into 352 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1878.0
Deduct 336 from 352 and we're left with 16.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 165 / 42

Step 6:
If we divide 165 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18783.0
Subtracting 126 from 165 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
390 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18783.9
Subtracting 378 from 390 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18783.92
If we subtract 84 from 120, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
42 can be fit into 360 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18783.928
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18783.9285
Subtracting 210 from 240 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18783.92857
If we take 294 away from 300, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18783.928571
Subtract 42 from 60 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 180 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18783.9285714
Subtracting 168 from 180 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18783.92857142
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18783.92857142 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
