We divide 672787 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 672787.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 67 / 42

On to step 2:
42 can be fit into 67 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 67, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 252 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
42 can be fit into 252 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 252 from 252.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 7 / 42

Step 4:
If we divide 7 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 160.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 78 1 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1601.0
If we subtract 42 from 78, we get 36.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 367 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 can be fit into 367 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16018.0
If we take 336 away from 367, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 310 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16018.7
Subtract 294 from 310 to 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
160 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16018.73
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.

Step 9:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16018.738
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
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 10:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16018.738
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16018.73809
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 12:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16018.738095
Subtract 210 from 220 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16018.7380952
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.

Advancing to step 14:
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: 16018.73809523
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.

Our division results in 16018.73809523 with a remaining 3.4e-08.
