We divide 444574 by 42
Our goal is to divide 444574 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 42

Step 2:
42 goes into 44 1 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 44 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 245 / 42

Step 4:
If we divide 245 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 105.0
If we take 210 away from 245, we end up with 35.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 357 / 42

Step 5:
357 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1058.0
Deduct 336 from 357 and we're left with 21.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 214 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 214 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10585.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 210 from 214.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10585.0
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10585.09
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left 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 9:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10585.095
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10585.0952
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up 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 11:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10585.09523
Subtract 126 from 160 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10585.095238
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10585.095238
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 400 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10585.09523809
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up 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.

Our division results in 10585.09523809 with a remaining 2.2e-08.
