We're dividing 953891 by 42 
We want to divide 953891 by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 95 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 95 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 84 from 95, we get 11.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 113 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 goes into 113 2 times with a remainder of 29.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtract 84 from 113 to get 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 298 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 227.0
Deduct 294 from 298 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 49 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2271.0
Subtracting 42 from 49 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 71 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22711.0
If we take 42 away from 71, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 290 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22711.6
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 252 from 290.
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 8:
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: 22711.69
If we take 378 away from 380, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 9:
42 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 22711.69
Deduct 0 from 20 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.

Advancing to step 10:
42 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22711.6904
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 11:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22711.69047
If we subtract 294 from 320, we get 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 12:
260 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22711.690476
Deduct 252 from 260 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
42 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22711.6904761
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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22711.69047619
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.

Our division results in 22711.69047619 with a remaining 2e-09.
