We divide 297567 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 297567.

On to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
42 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 297 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
297 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 294 from 297 to get 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 42

Step 4:
35 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 70.0
Subtracting 0 from 35 leaves us with 35.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 356 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 356 8 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 708.0
If we take 336 away from 356, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 207 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 207 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7084.0
Deduct 168 from 207 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 7:
42 goes into 390 9 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7084.9
If we take 378 away from 390, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7084.92
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7084.928
If we subtract 336 from 360, we get 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 10:
If we divide 240 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7084.9285
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.

Step 11:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7084.92857
Deduct 294 from 300 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.

Step 12:
The number 42 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7084.928571
If we subtract 42 from 60, we 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.

Step 13:
42 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7084.9285714
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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7084.92857142
If we subtract 84 from 120, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 7084.92857142 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
