We divide 303851 by 42
Our goal is to divide 303851 by 42.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 30 / 42

Step 2:
30 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 303 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 303 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 294 from 303 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 42

On to step 4:
When dividing 98 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 72.0
Deduct 84 from 98 and we're left with 14.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 145 / 42

Step 5:
If we divide 145 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 723.0
If we take 126 away from 145, we end up with 19.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 191 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 191 4 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7234.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 168 from 191.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
42 can be fit into 230 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7234.5
If we subtract 210 from 230, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7234.54
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.

Advancing to step 9:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7234.547
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.

Moving on to step 10:
260 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7234.5476
If we subtract 252 from 260, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7234.54761
If we subtract 42 from 80, we get 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.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7234.547619
Deduct 378 from 380 and we're left 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:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7234.547619
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.

Moving on to step 14:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7234.54761904
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.

The quotient of the division is 7234.54761904, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
