96549 divided by 42 
We want to divide 96549 by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 96 / 42

On to step 2:
If we divide 96 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 84 away from 96, we end up with 12.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 125 / 42

Step 3:
The number 42 fits into 125 2 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtract 84 from 125 to get 41.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 414 / 42

Step 4:
414 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 36.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 229.0
If we take 378 away from 414, we end up with 36.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 369 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 369 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 33.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2298.0
If we subtract 336 from 369, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 330 7 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2298.7
Subtracting 294 from 330 leaves us 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 7:
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: 2298.78
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2298.785
If we subtract 210 from 240, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 300 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2298.7857
If we subtract 294 from 300, we 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2298.78571
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2298.785714
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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2298.7857142
Subtract 84 from 120 to 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.

Advancing to step 13:
360 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2298.78571428
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.

The final result is 2298.78571428 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
