Let's divide 709762 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 709762.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 70 / 42

Step 2:
When dividing 70 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 70, we get 28.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 289 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 can be fit into 289 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 252 away from 289, we end up with 37.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 377 / 42

Step 4:
42 can be fit into 377 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 168.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 336 from 377.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 416 / 42

Step 5:
42 goes into 416 9 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1689.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 378 from 416.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 382 / 42

On to step 6:
If we divide 382 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16899.0
Subtract 378 from 382 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16899.0
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.

Moving on to step 8:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 16899.09
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 378 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16899.095
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16899.0952
Subtracting 84 from 100 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16899.09523
If we subtract 126 from 160, we get 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 12:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 16899.095238
If we take 336 away from 340, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 16899.095238
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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 16899.09523809
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 16899.09523809, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
