265165 divided by 42 
Our goal is to divide 265165 by 42.

Step 1:
42 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 265 / 42

On to step 3:
If we divide 265 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 252 from 265, we get 13.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 131 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 131 3 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we take 126 away from 131, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 56 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 56 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 631.0
Subtract 42 from 56 to get 14.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 145 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 145 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6313.0
Deduct 126 from 145 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 42 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6313.4
Subtract 168 from 190 to 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 8:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6313.45
Deduct 210 from 220 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6313.452
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
42 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6313.4523
Subtract 126 from 160 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
42 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 6313.45238
Subtract 336 from 340 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.

On to step 12:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6313.45238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

Step 13:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6313.4523809
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 6313.45238095
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.

The final outcome is 6313.45238095, with a leftover of 1e-08.
