Let's divide 604305 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 604305 can be divided by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
6 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 60 / 42

Step 2:
42 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 184 / 42

On to step 3:
When dividing 184 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 168 from 184 and we're left with 16.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 163 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
163 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 143.0
If we subtract 126 from 163, we get 37.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 370 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 370 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1438.0
If we subtract 336 from 370, we get 34.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 345 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 345 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14388.0
Subtracting 336 from 345 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
42 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14388.2
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 84 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14388.21
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
42 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14388.214
Subtracting 168 from 180 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
120 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14388.2142
Deduct 84 from 120 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14388.21428
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14388.214285
Subtract 210 from 240 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 14388.2142857
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 60 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14388.21428571
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Our division results in 14388.21428571 with a remaining 1.8e-08.
