We look at the division of 739486 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 739486.

On to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 73 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 42 from 73.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 319 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
42 can be fit into 319 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 294 from 319 to get 25.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 254 / 42

On to step 4:
254 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 176.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 252 from 254.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1760.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 286 / 42

On to step 6:
42 can be fit into 286 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17606.0
If we subtract 252 from 286, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17606.8
If we subtract 336 from 340, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17606.8
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.

Step 9:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17606.809
If we subtract 378 from 400, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17606.8095
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.

Moving on to step 11:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17606.80952
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up 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 12:
42 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17606.809523
Subtracting 126 from 160 leaves us with 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 13:
340 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17606.8095238
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17606.8095238
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.

The quotient of the division is 17606.8095238, and the remainder is 4e-08.
