394736 divided by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 394736.

On to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 42

Step 2:
If we divide 39 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 39, we end up with 39.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 394 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 394 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 378 from 394 leaves us with 16.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 167 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 167 3 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 93.0
Deduct 126 from 167 and we're left with 41.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 413 / 42

On to step 5:
When dividing 413 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 939.0
Subtracting 378 from 413 leaves us with 35.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 356 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 356 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 20.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9398.0
Deduct 336 from 356 and we're left with 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 7:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9398.4
Subtract 168 from 200 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9398.47
Subtracting 294 from 320 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9398.476
If we take 252 away from 260, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
42 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9398.4761
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9398.47619
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.

Moving on to step 12:
42 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9398.47619
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 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 13:
When dividing 200 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9398.4761904
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 320 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9398.47619047
Deduct 294 from 320 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9398.47619047 with a remaining 2.6e-08.
