We divide 229620 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 229620.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 22 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 229 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 229 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 19.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 210 from 229 leaves us with 19.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 196 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
42 goes into 196 4 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
Deduct 168 from 196 and we're left with 28.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 282 / 42

Step 5:
42 goes into 282 6 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 546.0
Deduct 252 from 282 and we're left with 30.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 300 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5467.0
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5467.1
Subtracting 42 from 60 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5467.14
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5467.142
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.

Moving on to step 10:
42 can be fit into 360 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5467.1428
If we subtract 336 from 360, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5467.14285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
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 12:
42 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5467.142857
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 294 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5467.1428571
If we subtract 42 from 60, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 180 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5467.14285714
Subtract 168 from 180 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5467.14285714 and a remainder of 1.2e-08.
