Let's divide 790956 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 790956.

Moving on to step 1:
42 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 79 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 goes into 79 1 times with a remainder of 37.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 79 to get 37.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 370 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 370 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 336 from 370 and we're left with 34.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 349 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
349 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 13.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188.0
Subtract 336 from 349 to get 13.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 135 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 135 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1883.0
If we take 126 away from 135, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 96 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18832.0
If we subtract 84 from 96, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
120 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18832.2
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 8:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18832.28
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
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 9:
42 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18832.285
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 10:
42 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18832.2857
Subtracting 294 from 300 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18832.28571
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 180 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18832.285714
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 120 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18832.2857142
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
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: 18832.28571428
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 18832.28571428 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
