We're dividing 711460 by 42 
We want to divide 711460 by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
42 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 71 / 42

On to step 2:
71 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 71 to get 29.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 291 / 42

On to step 3:
When dividing 291 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 252 away from 291, we end up with 39.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 394 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
42 can be fit into 394 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 169.0
Subtract 378 from 394 to get 16.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 166 / 42

Step 5:
If we divide 166 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1693.0
If we subtract 126 from 166, we get 40.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 400 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16939.0
If we subtract 378 from 400, we 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.

Moving on to step 7:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 16939.5
Subtract 210 from 220 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 8:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16939.52
Subtract 84 from 100 to get 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 9:
42 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16939.523
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
42 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16939.5238
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16939.5238
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
42 can be fit into 400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16939.523809
If we subtract 378 from 400, we 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 13:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16939.5238095
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16939.52380952
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.

Our division results in 16939.52380952 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
