Let's divide 782088 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 782088.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 78 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 36.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 42 from 78.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 362 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 can be fit into 362 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 336 away from 362, we end up with 26.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 260 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 186.0
Subtracting 252 from 260 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
42 can be fit into 88 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1862.0
Deduct 84 from 88 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
48 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18621.0
Deduct 42 from 48 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 7:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18621.1
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18621.14
Deduct 168 from 180 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 9:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18621.142
Subtracting 84 from 120 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18621.1428
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 11:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18621.14285
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.

Step 12:
If we divide 300 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18621.142857
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.

Advancing to step 13:
42 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18621.1428571
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 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 14:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18621.14285714
Subtract 168 from 180 to 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.

Our division results in 18621.14285714 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
