Let's divide 42938387 by 751
We want to divide 42938387 by 751.

On to step 1:
751 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 751

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 42 by 751, we get 0 and a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 429 / 751

Step 3:
751 can be fit into 429 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 429.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 429 to get 429.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 429 and repeat the process: 4293 / 751

Advancing to step 4:
The number 751 fits into 4293 5 times, leaving a remainder of 538.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 3755 from 4293 leaves us with 538.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 538, then carry on: 5388 / 751

Advancing to step 5:
The number 751 fits into 5388 7 times, leaving a remainder of 131.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 5257 from 5388, we get 131.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 131 and continue: 1313 / 751

Let's proceed to step 6:
751 goes into 1313 1 times with a remainder of 562.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 571.0
Deduct 751 from 1313 and we're left with 562.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 562, then carry on: 5628 / 751

Step 7:
751 goes into 5628 7 times with a remainder of 371.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5717.0
If we subtract 5257 from 5628, we get 371.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 371, then carry on: 3717 / 751

On to step 8:
751 goes into 3717 4 times with a remainder of 713.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57174.0
The remainder is 713 after subtracting 3004 from 3717.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7130, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
7130 divided by 751 is 9 with a remainder of 371.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 57174.9
The remainder is 371 after subtracting 6759 from 7130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3710, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 3710 by 751, we get 4 with a remainder of 706.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57174.94
Subtracting 3004 from 3710 leaves us with 706.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7060, and continue the process.

Step 11:
7060 divided by 751 is 9 with a remainder of 301.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57174.949
If we take 6759 away from 7060, we end up with 301.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3010, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 751 fits into 3010 4 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57174.9494
Deduct 3004 from 3010 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
751 can be fit into 60 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57174.9494
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 600 by 751, we get 0 with a remainder of 600.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57174.9494
Subtract 0 from 600 to get 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6000, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 57174.9494 and a remainder of 6e-05.
