We divide 189447 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 189447.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 189 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 goes into 189 4 times with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 168 from 189 and we're left with 21.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 214 / 42

Step 4:
42 goes into 214 5 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 210 from 214.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 can be fit into 44 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 451.0
Deduct 42 from 44 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
27 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4510.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
42 goes into 270 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4510.6
Subtracting 252 from 270 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.

On to step 8:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4510.64
If we subtract 168 from 180, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4510.642
Subtracting 84 from 120 leaves us 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:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4510.6428
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us with 24.
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.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4510.64285
Subtract 210 from 240 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
42 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4510.642857
If we subtract 294 from 300, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4510.6428571
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4510.64285714
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.

The quotient of the division is 4510.64285714, and the remainder is 1.2e-08.
