6235577 ÷ 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 6235577 can be divided by 42.

On to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 62 / 42

On to step 2:
42 goes into 62 1 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 62, we end up with 20.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 203 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 can be fit into 203 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 168 from 203.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 355 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 355 8 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 336 from 355.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 195 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 195 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 27.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1484.0
If we subtract 168 from 195, we get 27.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 277 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 277 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14846.0
If we take 252 away from 277, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 257 / 42

Moving on to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 257 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148466.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 252 from 257.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 50 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 148466.1
Subtract 42 from 50 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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 148466.11
Subtract 42 from 80 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Our division results in 148466.11 with a remaining 0.038.
