62856 divided by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 62856.

Let's proceed to step 1:
42 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 62 / 42

Step 2:
62 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 62, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 208 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 208 4 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 168 away from 208, we end up with 40.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 405 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
405 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149.0
Deduct 378 from 405 and we're left with 27.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 276 / 42

On to step 5:
42 can be fit into 276 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 252 from 276.
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 6:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.5
Deduct 210 from 240 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 300 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1496.57
If we subtract 294 from 300, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1496.571
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.5714
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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 120 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1496.57142
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 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 11:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.571428
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 240 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.5714285
Subtracting 210 from 240 leaves us with 30.
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 13:
42 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1496.57142857
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 1496.57142857 with a remainder of 6e-09.
