We're dividing 59806924 by 42 
Our goal is to divide 59806924 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 42

On to step 2:
42 can be fit into 59 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 59, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 goes into 178 4 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 168 from 178 leaves us with 10.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 100 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 142.0
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 166 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 166 3 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1423.0
Subtract 126 from 166 to get 40.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 409 / 42

Step 6:
409 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14239.0
If we subtract 378 from 409, we get 31.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 312 / 42

Advancing to step 7:
312 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 142397.0
Subtracting 294 from 312 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 184 / 42

On to step 8:
42 can be fit into 184 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1423974.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 168 from 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1423974.3
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 10:
340 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1423974.38
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1423974.38
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1423974.3809
Subtracting 378 from 400 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1423974.38095
Subtract 210 from 220 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1423974.380952
Subtract 84 from 100 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1423974.3809523
Subtracting 126 from 160 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
42 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1423974.38095238
If we take 336 away from 340, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1423974.38095238 with a remaining 4e-09.
