We look at the division of 326873 by 42 
Our goal is to divide 326873 by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 32 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
42 goes into 32 0 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 32 leaves us with 32.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 326 / 42

Step 3:
The number 42 fits into 326 7 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 294 from 326, we get 32.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 328 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
328 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77.0
Subtracting 294 from 328 leaves us with 34.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 347 / 42

Step 5:
When dividing 347 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 11.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 778.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 336 from 347.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 113 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 113 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 29.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7782.0
Subtracting 84 from 113 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
290 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7782.6
Subtracting 252 from 290 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
42 can be fit into 380 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7782.69
If we subtract 378 from 380, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7782.69
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7782.6904
Subtract 168 from 200 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
42 can be fit into 320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7782.69047
If we subtract 294 from 320, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7782.690476
Subtract 252 from 260 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7782.6904761
If we subtract 42 from 80, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
380 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7782.69047619
Deduct 378 from 380 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7782.69047619 with a balance of 2e-09.
