886422 divided by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 886422 can be divided by 42.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 42

On to step 2:
42 can be fit into 88 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 84 away from 88, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 can be fit into 46 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 42 from 46 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 44 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
44 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 211.0
If we subtract 42 from 44, we get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
22 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2110.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 222 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 222 5 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 21105.0
If we subtract 210 from 222, 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.

On to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21105.2
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.

On to step 8:
360 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21105.28
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
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 9:
240 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21105.285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
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 10:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21105.2857
Subtracting 294 from 300 leaves us 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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21105.28571
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.

Step 12:
42 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 21105.285714
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.

Step 13:
42 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21105.2857142
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 360 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 21105.28571428
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 21105.28571428 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
