206726 divided by 42 
We want to divide 206726 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 20 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 206 / 42

Step 3:
42 can be fit into 206 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 168 away from 206, we end up with 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 42

Step 4:
387 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 378 from 387.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 92 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 92 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 492.0
If we take 84 away from 92, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
42 goes into 86 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4922.0
Subtracting 84 from 86 leaves us 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 7:
42 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4922.0
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.

Step 8:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4922.04
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 320 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4922.047
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.

On to step 10:
260 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4922.0476
Subtract 252 from 260 to get 8.
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 11:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4922.04761
Deduct 42 from 80 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
42 can be fit into 380 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4922.047619
Subtract 378 from 380 to 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.

Step 13:
42 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4922.047619
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4922.04761904
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final result is 4922.04761904 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
