Let's divide 487013 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 487013.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in 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.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 42

Step 2:
42 goes into 48 1 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 48, we get 6.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 67 / 42

Step 3:
67 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 42 from 67 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 250 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 250 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 115.0
Deduct 210 from 250 and we're left with 40.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 401 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 401 9 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1159.0
If we subtract 378 from 401, we get 23.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 233 / 42

Step 6:
If we divide 233 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11595.0
Subtracting 210 from 233 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11595.5
Subtracting 210 from 230 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 8:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11595.54
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.

On to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 320 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11595.547
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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11595.5476
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:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11595.54761
Subtracting 42 from 80 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 12:
42 can be fit into 380 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11595.547619
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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11595.547619
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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 200 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11595.54761904
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11595.54761904, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
