Let's divide 27023 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 27023.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 42

On to step 2:
27 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 270 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 270 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 252 from 270.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 182 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 182 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 64.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 168 from 182.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 143 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
143 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 643.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 126 from 143.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 170 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 643.4
If we subtract 168 from 170, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 643.4
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
42 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 643.404
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 643.4047
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 294 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 260 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 643.40476
Deduct 252 from 260 and we're left 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 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 643.404761
Subtract 42 from 80 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 643.4047619
Deduct 378 from 380 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 643.4047619
Subtracting 0 from 20 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.

After the division, we end up with 643.4047619 and a remainder of 2e-08.
