743341 divided by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 743341.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 42 from 74.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 323 / 42

On to step 3:
When dividing 323 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 294 from 323 and we're left with 29.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 293 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 goes into 293 6 times with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 176.0
If we take 252 away from 293, we end up with 41.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 414 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 414 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1769.0
If we subtract 378 from 414, we get 36.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 361 / 42

On to step 6:
42 goes into 361 8 times with a remainder of 25.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17698.0
Subtracting 336 from 361 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 250 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17698.5
If we subtract 210 from 250, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17698.59
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left 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 9:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17698.595
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
100 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17698.5952
Subtracting 84 from 100 leaves us with 16.
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 11:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 17698.59523
If we subtract 126 from 160, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
42 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17698.595238
Deduct 336 from 340 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17698.595238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

On to step 14:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17698.59523809
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 17698.59523809 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
