899381 ÷ 42 
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 899381.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 89 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 89 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 84 from 89 to get 5.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
59 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 42 from 59, we get 17.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 173 / 42

On to step 4:
When dividing 173 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 214.0
Subtracting 168 from 173 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 58 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 58 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2141.0
If we subtract 42 from 58, we get 16.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 161 / 42

On to step 6:
If we divide 161 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 35.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21413.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 126 from 161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 350 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21413.8
If we subtract 336 from 350, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 140 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21413.83
If we take 126 away from 140, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 140 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21413.833
Subtract 126 from 140 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 21413.833, with a leftover of 0.0014.
