We look at the division of 718043 by 42 
Our goal is to divide 718043 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 42

On to step 2:
When dividing 71 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 42 from 71 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 298 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 298 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 294 from 298, we get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 42

On to step 4:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 170.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 404 / 42

Step 5:
If we divide 404 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1709.0
Subtract 378 from 404 to get 26.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 263 / 42

Step 6:
263 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 11.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17096.0
Deduct 252 from 263 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 7:
42 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17096.2
If we take 84 away from 110, 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 260 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17096.26
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.

On to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17096.261
Subtracting 42 from 80 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 380 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17096.2619
Subtract 378 from 380 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17096.2619
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 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 12:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17096.261904
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17096.2619047
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.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17096.26190476
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 17096.26190476 and a remainder of 8e-09.
