We look at the division of 24412659 by 42 
We want to divide 24412659 by 42.

On to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 42

Step 2:
42 goes into 24 0 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 244 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 goes into 244 5 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 210 from 244 to get 34.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 341 / 42

On to step 4:
When dividing 341 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 5.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 336 from 341 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 52 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 581.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 42 from 52.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 106 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 106 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5812.0
Deduct 84 from 106 and we're left with 22.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 225 / 42

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 225 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58125.0
Subtract 210 from 225 to get 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 159 / 42

Going ahead to step 8:
42 goes into 159 3 times with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 581253.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 126 from 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 330 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 581253.7
If we take 294 away from 330, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 360 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 581253.78
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 581253.785
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
42 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 581253.7857
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
42 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 581253.78571
If we subtract 42 from 60, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
42 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 581253.785714
Subtracting 168 from 180 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
120 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 581253.7857142
If we subtract 84 from 120, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 581253.78571428
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 581253.78571428, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
