We divide 492928 by 42
We want to divide 492928 by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
42 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
49 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 49 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 72 1 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 42 from 72, we get 30.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 309 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 309 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 117.0
If we subtract 294 from 309, we get 15.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 152 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 152 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1173.0
If we subtract 126 from 152, we get 26.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 268 / 42

Step 6:
268 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11736.0
Subtracting 252 from 268 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11736.3
Deduct 126 from 160 and we're left 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.

Step 8:
42 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11736.38
If we take 336 away from 340, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11736.38
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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11736.3809
Subtracting 378 from 400 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11736.38095
Subtracting 210 from 220 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 42 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11736.380952
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 160 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11736.3809523
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up 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.

On to step 14:
42 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11736.38095238
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.

The final result is 11736.38095238 with a remainder of 4e-09.
