24741939 ÷ 42 
Our goal is to divide 24741939 by 42.

Step 1:
42 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 247 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 247 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 37.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 210 from 247 to get 37.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 374 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 374 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we subtract 336 from 374, we get 38.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 381 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 381 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 589.0
Subtract 378 from 381 to get 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 42

On to step 6:
When dividing 39 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 39.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5890.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 0 from 39.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 393 / 42

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 393 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58909.0
Subtracting 378 from 393 leaves us with 15.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 159 / 42

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 159 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 589093.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 126 from 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
330 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 589093.7
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 294 from 330.
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 10:
When dividing 360 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 589093.78
If we subtract 336 from 360, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 589093.785
If we subtract 210 from 240, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
42 can be fit into 300 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 589093.7857
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
60 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 589093.78571
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
42 goes into 180 4 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 589093.785714
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up with 12.
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 15:
120 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 589093.7857142
Subtract 84 from 120 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.

Let's proceed to step 16:
360 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 589093.78571428
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.

After the division, we end up with 589093.78571428 and a remainder of 2.4e-08.
