Let's divide 984619 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 984619.

Step 1:
42 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 84 from 98.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 144 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 144 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 18.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Deduct 126 from 144 and we're left with 18.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 186 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
42 goes into 186 4 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 234.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 168 from 186.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 181 / 42

On to step 5:
If we divide 181 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 13.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2344.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 168 from 181.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 139 / 42

On to step 6:
42 goes into 139 3 times with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23443.0
If we take 126 away from 139, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 130 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23443.3
If we take 126 away from 130, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23443.3
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23443.309
Subtracting 378 from 400 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
220 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23443.3095
Subtract 210 from 220 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23443.30952
Subtracting 84 from 100 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23443.309523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
42 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23443.3095238
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23443.3095238
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 23443.3095238 with a remaining 4e-08.
