Let's divide 293294 by 42
We want to divide 293294 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 0 from 29.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 293 / 42

On to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 293 6 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 252 from 293 to get 41.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 412 / 42

On to step 4:
412 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 69.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 378 from 412.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 349 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 349 8 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 698.0
Subtract 336 from 349 to get 13.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 134 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
134 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 8.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6983.0
Deduct 126 from 134 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6983.1
Subtracting 42 from 80 leaves us 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.

Step 8:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6983.19
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 9:
42 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6983.19
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
200 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6983.1904
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6983.19047
Deduct 294 from 320 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 12:
42 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6983.190476
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
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 13:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6983.1904761
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.

On to step 14:
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: 6983.19047619
If we take 378 away from 380, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 6983.19047619 with a balance of 2e-09.
