We divide 474934 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 474934.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 47 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 42 from 47 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 54 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 42 from 54.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 129 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
42 can be fit into 129 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 113.0
If we take 126 away from 129, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 33 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 33 0 times with a remainder of 33.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1130.0
Subtracting 0 from 33 leaves us with 33.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 334 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
42 can be fit into 334 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11307.0
Subtract 294 from 334 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11307.9
If we subtract 378 from 400, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11307.95
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11307.952
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11307.9523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11307.95238
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11307.95238
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11307.9523809
Subtracting 378 from 400 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
42 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11307.95238095
Subtracting 210 from 220 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 11307.95238095 with a remainder of 1e-08.
