267636 ÷ 42 
Our goal is to divide 267636 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 42

On to step 2:
42 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 267 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 267 6 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 252 from 267.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 156 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 156 3 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 126 from 156.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 303 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 303 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 637.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 294 from 303.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
42 goes into 96 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6372.0
Subtracting 84 from 96 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6372.2
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 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 8:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6372.28
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6372.285
If we take 210 away from 240, we end up with 30.
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 10:
42 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6372.2857
Subtracting 294 from 300 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 60 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 18.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6372.28571
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 180 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6372.285714
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.

Step 13:
When dividing 120 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6372.2857142
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 14:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6372.28571428
Subtract 336 from 360 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 6372.28571428, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
