Let's divide 782008 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 782008 can be divided by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
42 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
78 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 78 and we're left with 36.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 362 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
42 goes into 362 8 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 336 from 362 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 260 / 42

Step 4:
42 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 186.0
If we subtract 252 from 260, we get 8.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 80 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1861.0
If we subtract 42 from 80, we get 38.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 388 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
42 can be fit into 388 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18619.0
Deduct 378 from 388 and we're left with 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 7:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18619.2
If we subtract 84 from 100, we 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.

Step 8:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18619.23
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18619.238
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18619.238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18619.23809
Subtract 378 from 400 to 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.

Moving on to step 12:
220 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18619.238095
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18619.2380952
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18619.23809523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 18619.23809523 and a remainder of 3.4e-08.
