534269 divided by 42 
We want to divide 534269 by 42.

Step 1:
5 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 42

Step 2:
When dividing 53 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 53, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 114 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 114 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 84 from 114 and we're left with 30.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 302 / 42

Step 4:
The number 42 fits into 302 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 127.0
If we subtract 294 from 302, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 86 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
86 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1272.0
If we subtract 84 from 86, we get 2.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 29 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12720.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
42 can be fit into 290 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12720.6
Subtract 252 from 290 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.

Advancing to step 8:
42 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12720.69
Subtracting 378 from 380 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
42 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12720.69
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 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 10:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12720.6904
If we take 168 away from 200, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12720.69047
If we subtract 294 from 320, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12720.690476
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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12720.6904761
If we subtract 42 from 80, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12720.69047619
If we take 378 away from 380, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12720.69047619 with a balance of 2e-09.
