We look at the division of 442687 by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 442687 can be divided by 42.

Step 1:
4 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
42 goes into 44 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 44 to get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 42

Step 3:
42 goes into 22 0 times with a remainder of 22.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 22, we get 22.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 226 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 226 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 16.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 105.0
Subtract 210 from 226 to get 16.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 168 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
42 goes into 168 4 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1054.0
If we subtract 168 from 168, we get 0.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 42

On to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10540.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10540.1
Subtract 42 from 70 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10540.16
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 252 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
280 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10540.166
If we subtract 252 from 280, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 10540.166, and the remainder is 0.0028.
