892807 ÷ 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 892807 can be divided by 42.

On to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 89 / 42

Step 2:
89 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 5.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 84 from 89, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 can be fit into 52 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 42 from 52 and we're left with 10.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 108 / 42

Step 4:
42 can be fit into 108 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 212.0
Subtracting 84 from 108 leaves us with 24.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 240 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 240 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2125.0
Deduct 210 from 240 and we're left with 30.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 307 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
307 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21257.0
Subtract 294 from 307 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 130 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21257.3
If we take 126 away from 130, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21257.3
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.

Step 9:
42 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21257.309
Subtracting 378 from 400 leaves us 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 10:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21257.3095
Subtracting 210 from 220 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21257.30952
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
160 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21257.309523
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
42 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 21257.3095238
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21257.3095238
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 21257.3095238, with a leftover of 4e-08.
