Let's divide 341617 by 42
We want to divide 341617 by 42.

Advancing to step 1:
3 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 42

Step 2:
34 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 34 to get 34.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 341 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 can be fit into 341 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 336 from 341 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 56 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 56 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 81.0
Subtract 42 from 56 to get 14.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 141 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 141 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 15.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 813.0
Subtracting 126 from 141 leaves us with 15.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 157 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 157 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8133.0
Subtract 126 from 157 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

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: 8133.7
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 294 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8133.73
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.

On to step 9:
340 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8133.738
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8133.738
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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8133.73809
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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8133.738095
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.

On to step 13:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8133.7380952
Subtracting 84 from 100 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 14:
The number 42 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8133.73809523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8133.73809523, with a leftover of 3.4e-08.
