We look at the division of 42261491 by 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 42261491.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 42 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 422 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 422 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 30.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 392 away from 422, we end up with 30.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 306 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 can be fit into 306 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 75.0
Subtract 280 from 306 to get 26.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 261 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 261 4 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 754.0
If we take 224 away from 261, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 374 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 374 6 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7546.0
Subtracting 336 from 374 leaves us with 38.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 389 / 56

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 389 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 53.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75466.0
If we subtract 336 from 389, we get 53.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 531 / 56

On to step 8:
56 goes into 531 9 times with a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 754669.0
If we subtract 504 from 531, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
56 goes into 270 4 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 754669.4
If we take 224 away from 270, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
56 can be fit into 460 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 754669.48
Subtract 448 from 460 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 754669.482
If we subtract 112 from 120, we 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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 754669.4821
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 754669.48214
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 754669.482142
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 754669.4821428
Deduct 448 from 480 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 754669.48214285
Subtracting 280 from 320 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.

The final outcome is 754669.48214285, with a leftover of 4e-08.
