Let's divide 653906 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 653906 can be divided by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 65 / 42

On to step 2:
When dividing 65 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 65 and we're left with 23.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 233 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
233 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 210 from 233, we get 23.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 239 / 42

Step 4:
42 goes into 239 5 times with a remainder of 29.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we take 210 away from 239, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 290 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 290 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1556.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 252 from 290.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 386 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 can be fit into 386 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15569.0
Subtracting 378 from 386 leaves us 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 80 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15569.1
Deduct 42 from 80 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15569.19
Subtract 378 from 380 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 20 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15569.19
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15569.1904
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15569.19047
If we subtract 294 from 320, we 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:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15569.190476
Subtracting 252 from 260 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15569.1904761
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.

On to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15569.19047619
Deduct 378 from 380 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 15569.19047619 with a remaining 2e-09.
