Let's divide 679695 by 42
We want to divide 679695 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 67 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
67 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 67 to get 25.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 259 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
259 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 252 from 259 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 76 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
42 can be fit into 76 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 161.0
Deduct 42 from 76 and we're left with 34.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 349 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 349 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1618.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 336 from 349.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 135 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 135 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16183.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 126 from 135.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16183.2
Subtract 84 from 90 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16183.21
Subtracting 42 from 60 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 16183.214
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 120 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16183.2142
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 360 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16183.21428
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16183.214285
If we subtract 210 from 240, we get 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 13:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16183.2142857
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16183.21428571
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 16183.21428571, with a leftover of 1.8e-08.
