We're dividing 291949 by 42 
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 291949.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 291 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 291 6 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 252 away from 291, we end up with 39.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 399 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 399 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 69.0
Subtract 378 from 399 to get 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
214 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 695.0
If we take 210 away from 214, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 42

On to step 6:
42 can be fit into 49 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6951.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 42 from 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 70 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6951.1
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 42 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
280 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6951.16
If we take 252 away from 280, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6951.166
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 252 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6951.166 with a balance of 0.0028.
