We look at the division of 561998 by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 561998 can be divided by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 56 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 56, we get 14.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 141 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
141 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Deduct 126 from 141 and we're left with 15.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 159 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
42 can be fit into 159 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 133.0
If we subtract 126 from 159, we get 33.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 339 / 42

Step 5:
The number 42 fits into 339 8 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1338.0
Subtracting 336 from 339 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 42

On to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13380.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13380.9
If we subtract 378 from 380, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 13380.9
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13380.904
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 320 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13380.9047
If we subtract 294 from 320, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 13380.90476
Subtract 252 from 260 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13380.904761
If we subtract 42 from 80, we 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 13:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13380.9047619
Subtracting 378 from 380 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13380.9047619
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 13380.9047619, and the remainder is 2e-08.
