Let's divide 77042 by 38
We want to figure out the number of times 77042 can be divided by 38.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 38 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 38

On to step 2:
The number 38 fits into 77 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 76 away from 77, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 10 / 38

Step 3:
38 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 104 / 38

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 104 by 38, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 202.0
If we take 76 away from 104, we end up with 28.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 282 / 38

Moving on to step 5:
38 goes into 282 7 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2027.0
Deduct 266 from 282 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 6:
38 can be fit into 160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2027.4
If we take 152 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
38 goes into 80 2 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2027.42
Subtract 76 from 80 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 40 by 38, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2027.421
If we take 38 away from 40, 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.

Advancing to step 9:
38 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2027.421
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Step 10:
38 goes into 200 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2027.42105
Subtract 190 from 200 to 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.

On to step 11:
The number 38 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2027.421052
Subtract 76 from 100 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 240 by 38, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2027.4210526
If we subtract 228 from 240, we get 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 13:
120 divided by 38 is 3 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2027.42105263
If we subtract 114 from 120, we 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.

The final result is 2027.42105263 with a remainder of 6e-09.
