898567 divided by 42 
Our goal is to divide 898567 by 42.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 89 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 84 from 89, we get 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 42

On to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 58 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 42 from 58 to get 16.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 165 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 can be fit into 165 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 213.0
Deduct 126 from 165 and we're left with 39.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 396 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 396 9 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2139.0
If we take 378 away from 396, we end up with 18.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 187 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 187 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21394.0
Deduct 168 from 187 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 190 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21394.4
Subtract 168 from 190 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21394.45
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21394.452
Subtract 84 from 100 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21394.4523
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21394.45238
If we take 336 away from 340, 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 12:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21394.45238
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
42 can be fit into 400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21394.4523809
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up 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 14:
42 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21394.45238095
Deduct 210 from 220 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 21394.45238095, and the remainder is 1e-08.
