We divide 798914 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 798914 can be divided by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
42 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in 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.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 79 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 79 1 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 42 from 79 to get 37.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 378 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 378 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 378 from 378 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 190.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 91 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
42 goes into 91 2 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1902.0
Deduct 84 from 91 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 42

Step 6:
74 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19021.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 42 from 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19021.7
Subtract 294 from 320 to 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
260 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19021.76
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 19021.761
Subtract 42 from 80 to 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19021.7619
Subtracting 378 from 380 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19021.7619
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
42 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19021.761904
If we subtract 168 from 200, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19021.7619047
If we take 294 away from 320, we end up with 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 14:
42 can be fit into 260 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19021.76190476
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 19021.76190476 with a balance of 8e-09.
