361761 divided by 42 
We want to divide 361761 by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
42 can be fit into 36 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 361 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 361 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 336 from 361 to get 25.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 257 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 257 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 86.0
Subtract 252 from 257 to get 5.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 56 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
56 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 861.0
If we subtract 42 from 56, we get 14.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 141 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 141 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8613.0
Subtract 126 from 141 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8613.3
Subtract 126 from 150 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 240 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8613.35
Subtracting 210 from 240 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8613.357
If we take 294 away from 300, we end up with 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:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8613.3571
Deduct 42 from 60 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8613.35714
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.

On to step 12:
42 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8613.357142
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.

Step 13:
If we divide 360 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8613.3571428
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left 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:
If we divide 240 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8613.35714285
If we subtract 210 from 240, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

The final result is 8613.35714285 with a remainder of 3e-08.
