40994300 divided by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 40994300.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 40 / 42

Step 2:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 409 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 409 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 378 from 409 leaves us with 31.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 319 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 319 7 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 97.0
If we take 294 away from 319, we end up with 25.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 254 / 42

Step 5:
When dividing 254 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 976.0
Subtract 252 from 254 to get 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 23 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9760.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 230 / 42

Advancing to step 7:
42 goes into 230 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 97605.0
If we take 210 away from 230, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 200 / 42

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 976054.0
Subtract 168 from 200 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 976054.7
Subtract 294 from 320 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 976054.76
Subtracting 252 from 260 leaves us with 8.
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.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 976054.761
Subtract 42 from 80 to 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 976054.7619
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:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 976054.7619
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.

Moving on to step 14:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 976054.761904
If we take 168 away from 200, 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.

Step 15:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 976054.7619047
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 16:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 976054.76190476
If we take 252 away from 260, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 976054.76190476 with a remaining 8e-09.
