We divide 7912341 by 42
We want to divide 7912341 by 42.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
79 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 79 to get 37.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 371 / 42

Step 3:
42 can be fit into 371 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 336 from 371 and we're left with 35.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 352 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 goes into 352 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 188.0
Subtract 336 from 352 to get 16.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 163 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 163 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 37.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1883.0
Subtracting 126 from 163 leaves us with 37.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 374 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
42 goes into 374 8 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18838.0
Deduct 336 from 374 and we're left with 38.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 381 / 42

Step 7:
42 can be fit into 381 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 188389.0
Subtracting 378 from 381 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188389.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up 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 9:
42 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 188389.07
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.

On to step 10:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188389.071
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 188389.0714
Subtract 168 from 180 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 188389.07142
Subtract 84 from 120 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 360 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 188389.071428
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.

Advancing to step 14:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 188389.0714285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
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 15:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 188389.07142857
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 294 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 188389.07142857 with a remainder of 6e-09.
