We look at the division of 16473 by 42 
We want to divide 16473 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
42 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, we get 16.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 164 / 42

Step 3:
164 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 126 from 164.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 387 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 387 9 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 378 from 387.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 93 / 42

On to step 5:
When dividing 93 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 392.0
If we subtract 84 from 93, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 90 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 392.2
Deduct 84 from 90 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
42 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 392.21
Deduct 42 from 60 and we're left 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 8:
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: 392.214
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 392.2142
Deduct 84 from 120 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 392.21428
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.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 392.214285
Deduct 210 from 240 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 392.2142857
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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 392.21428571
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.

The final outcome is 392.21428571, with a leftover of 1.8e-08.
