We look at the division of 24900585 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 24900585.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 24 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 249 / 42

On to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 249 5 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 210 from 249, we get 39.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 390 / 42

Step 4:
If we divide 390 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
If we take 378 away from 390, we end up with 12.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 120 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 120 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 592.0
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 36.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 365 / 42

Step 6:
42 goes into 365 8 times with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5928.0
Subtract 336 from 365 to get 29.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 298 / 42

On to step 7:
42 can be fit into 298 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59287.0
Deduct 294 from 298 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 45 / 42

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 45 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 592871.0
If we subtract 42 from 45, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 592871.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up 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.

Step 10:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 592871.07
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 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 11:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 592871.071
Subtract 42 from 60 to get 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:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 592871.0714
If we subtract 168 from 180, 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 13:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 592871.07142
Deduct 84 from 120 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 360 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 592871.071428
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.

On to step 15:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 592871.0714285
If we subtract 210 from 240, we get 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 16:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 592871.07142857
If we take 294 away from 300, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 592871.07142857, and the remainder is 6e-09.
