We divide 412988 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 412988 can be divided by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 41 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
41 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 41 leaves us with 41.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 412 / 42

On to step 3:
412 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 378 from 412 and we're left with 34.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 349 / 42

Step 4:
42 goes into 349 8 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 98.0
Deduct 336 from 349 and we're left with 13.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 138 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 138 3 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 983.0
Subtract 126 from 138 to get 12.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 128 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 128 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9833.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 126 from 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9833.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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 8:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9833.04
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9833.047
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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9833.0476
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9833.04761
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 12:
42 can be fit into 380 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9833.047619
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.

Step 13:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9833.047619
If we subtract 0 from 20, 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
42 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9833.04761904
Deduct 168 from 200 and we're left 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.

The final result is 9833.04761904 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
