956975 divided by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 956975 can be divided by 42.

Step 1:
42 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 95 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 95 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 84 away from 95, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 116 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 goes into 116 2 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 84 from 116.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 329 / 42

On to step 4:
329 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 227.0
Subtracting 294 from 329 leaves us with 35.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 357 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 357 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 21.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2278.0
Deduct 336 from 357 and we're left with 21.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 215 / 42

On to step 6:
When dividing 215 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22785.0
If we subtract 210 from 215, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
50 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22785.1
If we subtract 42 from 50, we get 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 8:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 22785.11
Subtracting 42 from 80 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 22785.11 with a balance of 0.038.
