Let's divide 752326 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 752326.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 75 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 goes into 75 1 times with a remainder of 33.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 75 and we're left with 33.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 332 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
42 can be fit into 332 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 294 from 332.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 383 / 42

On to step 4:
383 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 179.0
If we subtract 378 from 383, we get 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 52 1 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1791.0
If we subtract 42 from 52, we get 10.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 106 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
106 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17912.0
If we subtract 84 from 106, we 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.

On to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17912.5
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.

On to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17912.52
Deduct 84 from 100 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17912.523
Deduct 126 from 160 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17912.5238
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17912.5238
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.

Advancing to step 12:
42 can be fit into 400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 17912.523809
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17912.5238095
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17912.52380952
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.

The final result is 17912.52380952 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
