We divide 45751 by 42
Our goal is to divide 45751 by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
42 can be fit into 45 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 45, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 37 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 375 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
375 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we take 336 away from 375, we end up with 39.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 391 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 391 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1089.0
Subtract 378 from 391 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 6:
If we divide 130 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1089.3
Deduct 126 from 130 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1089.3
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
42 can be fit into 400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1089.309
Subtract 378 from 400 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1089.3095
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1089.30952
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1089.309523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1089.3095238
If we subtract 336 from 340, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1089.3095238
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1089.3095238 with a remaining 4e-08.
