42637400 divided by 723 
Our goal is to divide 42637400 by 723.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 723 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 723

On to step 2:
The number 723 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 426 / 723

On to step 3:
723 goes into 426 0 times with a remainder of 426.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 426 leaves us with 426.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 426, then repeat: 4263 / 723

Step 4:
When dividing 4263 by 723, we get 5 with a remainder of 648.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 3615 from 4263 to get 648.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 648 and continue: 6487 / 723

On to step 5:
If we divide 6487 by 723, we get 8 and a remainder of 703.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
Deduct 5784 from 6487 and we're left with 703.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 703 and repeat the process: 7034 / 723

On to step 6:
The number 723 fits into 7034 9 times, leaving a remainder of 527.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 589.0
If we take 6507 away from 7034, we end up with 527.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 527, then carry on: 5270 / 723

Let's proceed to step 7:
723 goes into 5270 7 times with a remainder of 209.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5897.0
If we subtract 5061 from 5270, we get 209.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 209 and continue with: 2090 / 723

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 2090 by 723, we get 2 and a remainder of 644.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 58972.0
Subtract 1446 from 2090 to get 644.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 6440 by 723, we get 8 and a remainder of 656.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58972.8
If we take 5784 away from 6440, we end up with 656.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
723 goes into 6560 9 times with a remainder of 53.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58972.89
Subtracting 6507 from 6560 leaves us with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 530 by 723, we get 0 with a remainder of 530.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58972.89
Deduct 0 from 530 and we're left with 530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
723 goes into 5300 7 times with a remainder of 239.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 58972.8907
Subtract 5061 from 5300 to get 239.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 723 fits into 2390 3 times, leaving a remainder of 221.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58972.89073
Subtracting 2169 from 2390 leaves us with 221.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 2210 by 723, we get 3 and a remainder of 41.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58972.890733
If we subtract 2169 from 2210, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Our division results in 58972.890733 with a remaining 4.1e-06.
