We look at the division of 252083 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 252083.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 252 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 252 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 252 away from 252, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 0 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 8 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 600.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 83 / 42

On to step 6:
If we divide 83 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 41.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6001.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 42 from 83.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 410 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 32.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6001.9
Subtract 378 from 410 to get 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 8:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6001.97
Subtracting 294 from 320 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6001.976
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6001.9761
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.

Moving on to step 11:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6001.97619
If we take 378 away from 380, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
20 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6001.97619
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6001.9761904
If we subtract 168 from 200, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
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: 6001.97619047
Subtract 294 from 320 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 6001.97619047, and the remainder is 2.6e-08.
