We divide 288809 by 42
We want to divide 288809 by 42.

Advancing 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
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 42

On to step 2:
28 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 28, we end up with 28.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 288 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 288 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 252 away from 288, we end up with 36.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 368 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
368 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 68.0
If we take 336 away from 368, we end up with 32.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 320 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
42 can be fit into 320 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 687.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 294 from 320.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 269 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 269 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6876.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 252 from 269.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
42 goes into 170 4 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6876.4
If we subtract 168 from 170, 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.

Step 8:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6876.4
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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6876.404
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 320 by 42, we get 7 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6876.4047
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.

Step 11:
260 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6876.40476
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6876.404761
Subtracting 42 from 80 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6876.4047619
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.

Step 14:
20 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6876.4047619
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.

The quotient of the division is 6876.4047619, and the remainder is 2e-08.
