Advancing to step 4:
286 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 252 from 286.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 347 / 42

On to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 347 8 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 568.0
Subtracting 336 from 347 leaves us with 11.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 110 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 110 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5682.0
Subtract 84 from 110 to get 26.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 269 / 42

On to step 7:
269 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56826.0
Deduct 252 from 269 and we're left with 17.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 42

Step 8:
When dividing 177 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 568264.0
Subtract 168 from 177 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
42 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 568264.2
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 84 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 568264.21
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 42 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 568264.214
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 568264.2142
Deduct 84 from 120 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
42 goes into 360 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 568264.21428
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left 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.

On to step 14:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 568264.214285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 568264.2142857
Deduct 294 from 300 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
42 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 568264.21428571
Subtracting 42 from 60 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 568264.21428571, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
