We're dividing 923138 by 42 
We want to divide 923138 by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 92 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 92 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 84 from 92 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 83 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 goes into 83 1 times with a remainder of 41.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 42 from 83.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 411 / 42

On to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 411 9 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 219.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 378 from 411.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 333 / 42

On to step 5:
When dividing 333 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2197.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 294 from 333.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 398 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 398 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21979.0
If we subtract 378 from 398, we get 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 7:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21979.4
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21979.47
If we take 294 away from 320, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21979.476
If we take 252 away from 260, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21979.4761
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 11:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21979.47619
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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21979.47619
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21979.4761904
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 14:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21979.47619047
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.

Our division results in 21979.47619047 with a remaining 2.6e-08.
