We look at the division of 975794 by 42 
We want to divide 975794 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 13.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 84 from 97 and we're left with 13.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 135 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 can be fit into 135 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 126 from 135.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
97 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 13.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 232.0
Subtract 84 from 97 to get 13.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 139 / 42

Step 5:
42 goes into 139 3 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2323.0
Subtracting 126 from 139 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 134 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
134 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23233.0
If we take 126 away from 134, 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:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23233.1
If we subtract 42 from 80, we get 38.
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 8:
42 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23233.19
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 378 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23233.19
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:
42 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23233.1904
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23233.19047
Subtract 294 from 320 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 260 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 23233.190476
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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 80 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 23233.1904761
Subtract 42 from 80 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23233.19047619
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 378 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 23233.19047619, with a leftover of 2e-09.
