42371 divided by 354 
Our goal is to divide 42371 by 354.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 354, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 354

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 divided by 354 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 423 / 354

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 423 by 354, we get 1 and a remainder of 69.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 354 from 423, we get 69.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 697 / 354

On to step 4:
697 divided by 354 is 1 with a remainder of 343.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 354 from 697 to get 343.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 343 and continue: 3431 / 354

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 3431 by 354, we get 9 with a remainder of 245.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 119.0
If we take 3186 away from 3431, we end up with 245.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2450, and continue the process.

Step 6:
354 goes into 2450 6 times with a remainder of 326.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 119.6
Subtract 2124 from 2450 to get 326.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
3260 divided by 354 is 9 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 119.69
If we take 3186 away from 3260, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
740 divided by 354 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 119.692
If we take 708 away from 740, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 320 by 354, we get 0 with a remainder of 320.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 119.692
The remainder is 320 after subtracting 0 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 354 fits into 3200 9 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 119.69209
If we subtract 3186 from 3200, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 354 fits into 140 0 times, leaving a remainder of 140.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 119.69209
The remainder is 140 after subtracting 0 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 354 fits into 1400 3 times, leaving a remainder of 338.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 119.6920903
Deduct 1062 from 1400 and we're left with 338.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 3380 by 354, we get 9 with a remainder of 194.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 119.69209039
Deduct 3186 from 3380 and we're left with 194.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1940, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 119.69209039 with a balance of 1.94e-07.
