270052 ÷ 42 
We want to divide 270052 by 42.

On to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 27 0 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 270 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 270 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 252 from 270, we get 18.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 180 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 64.0
Deduct 168 from 180 and we're left with 12.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 125 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 125 2 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 642.0
Subtracting 84 from 125 leaves us with 41.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 412 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
412 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6429.0
If we subtract 378 from 412, 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6429.8
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6429.8
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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6429.809
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.

Moving on to step 10:
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: 6429.8095
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6429.80952
Deduct 84 from 100 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6429.809523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6429.8095238
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6429.8095238
Subtract 0 from 40 to 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.

The final outcome is 6429.8095238, with a leftover of 4e-08.
