We look at the division of 846953 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 846953.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 84 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 84 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 84 from 84 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 6 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 69 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 69 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 27.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 201.0
Subtracting 42 from 69 leaves us with 27.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 275 / 42

Step 5:
When dividing 275 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 23.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2016.0
Deduct 252 from 275 and we're left with 23.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 233 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 233 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 23.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20165.0
Subtract 210 from 233 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 7:
42 goes into 230 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20165.5
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 210 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20165.54
If we take 168 away from 200, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20165.547
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.

On to step 10:
42 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20165.5476
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
42 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20165.54761
If we take 42 away from 80, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 20165.547619
Subtracting 378 from 380 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20165.547619
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20165.54761904
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 20165.54761904 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
