We divide 383396 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 383396 can be divided by 42.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 383 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 goes into 383 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 378 from 383 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 42

Step 4:
42 can be fit into 53 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 91.0
Subtracting 42 from 53 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 42

On to step 5:
42 can be fit into 119 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 912.0
If we take 84 away from 119, we end up with 35.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 356 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 goes into 356 8 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9128.0
Deduct 336 from 356 and we're left 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 7:
The number 42 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9128.4
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 8:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9128.47
If we take 294 away from 320, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9128.476
Subtract 252 from 260 to 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9128.4761
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.

Step 11:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9128.47619
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 378 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
42 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9128.47619
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 13:
The number 42 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9128.4761904
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.

On to step 14:
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: 9128.47619047
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.

Our division results in 9128.47619047 with a remaining 2.6e-08.
