We divide 942846 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 942846 can be divided by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
9 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 94 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 94 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 84 from 94.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 102 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 can be fit into 102 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 84 from 102.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 goes into 188 4 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 224.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 168 from 188.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 204 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
204 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2244.0
If we take 168 away from 204, we end up with 36.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 366 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 366 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 30.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22448.0
Deduct 336 from 366 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 22448.7
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22448.71
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22448.714
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 120 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 22448.7142
Deduct 84 from 120 and we're left 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.

Step 11:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22448.71428
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.

Step 12:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22448.714285
Subtract 210 from 240 to get 30.
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 13:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22448.7142857
Subtracting 294 from 300 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
42 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22448.71428571
Subtracting 42 from 60 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The final result is 22448.71428571 with a remainder of 1.8e-08.
