We divide 73842 by 84
Let's see how many times 84 fits into 73842.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 84 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 84

Going ahead to step 2:
73 divided by 84 is 0 with a remainder of 73.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 73, we get 73.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 738 / 84

Moving on to step 3:
738 divided by 84 is 8 with a remainder of 66.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 672 from 738 leaves us with 66.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 66, then repeat: 664 / 84

Moving on to step 4:
664 divided by 84 is 7 with a remainder of 76.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 87.0
Subtract 588 from 664 to get 76.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 76 and repeat the process: 762 / 84

Moving on to step 5:
762 divided by 84 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 879.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 756 from 762.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 60 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 879.0
Deduct 0 from 60 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 600 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 879.07
Subtracting 588 from 600 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 84 fits into 120 1 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 879.071
Subtracting 84 from 120 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 84, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 879.0714
If we take 336 away from 360, 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.

Moving on to step 10:
240 divided by 84 is 2 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 879.07142
Deduct 168 from 240 and we're left with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 720 by 84, we get 8 and a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 879.071428
Subtract 672 from 720 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
84 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 879.0714285
If we take 420 away from 480, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
600 divided by 84 is 7 with a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 879.07142857
Deduct 588 from 600 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final result is 879.07142857 with a remainder of 1.2e-08.
