We look at the division of 906482 by 42 
We want to divide 906482 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 90 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 90 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 84 from 90, we get 6.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 66 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 66 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 42 from 66, we get 24.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 244 / 42

Step 4:
If we divide 244 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 34.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 215.0
Deduct 210 from 244 and we're left with 34.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 348 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
42 goes into 348 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2158.0
If we take 336 away from 348, we end up with 12.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 122 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
122 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21582.0
If we take 84 away from 122, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21582.9
If we subtract 378 from 380, 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.

On to step 8:
42 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21582.9
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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21582.904
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.

Step 10:
The number 42 fits into 320 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21582.9047
If we take 294 away from 320, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 21582.90476
If we subtract 252 from 260, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21582.904761
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 13:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21582.9047619
Subtracting 378 from 380 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 14:
20 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21582.9047619
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 21582.9047619 with a remaining 2e-08.
