We look at the division of 629868 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 629868.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 62 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
62 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 62, we get 20.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 209 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 209 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 168 from 209 leaves us with 41.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 418 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 goes into 418 9 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149.0
If we take 378 away from 418, we end up with 40.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 406 / 42

On to step 5:
If we divide 406 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1499.0
Subtract 378 from 406 to get 28.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 288 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 can be fit into 288 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 14996.0
Subtract 252 from 288 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 360 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14996.8
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 42 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14996.85
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 300 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14996.857
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14996.8571
If we subtract 42 from 60, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14996.85714
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 120 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14996.857142
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 84 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 360 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14996.8571428
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14996.85714285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14996.85714285 with a balance of 3e-08.
