352687 divided by 42 
We want to divide 352687 by 42.

On to step 1:
3 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 35 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
35 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 35, we end up with 35.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 352 / 42

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 352 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 336 from 352, we get 16.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 166 / 42

Step 4:
If we divide 166 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 126 from 166.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 408 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 408 9 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 839.0
If we take 378 away from 408, we end up with 30.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 307 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 goes into 307 7 times with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8397.0
Subtract 294 from 307 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
42 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8397.3
If we take 126 away from 130, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8397.3
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8397.309
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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8397.3095
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 42 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8397.30952
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8397.309523
Subtract 126 from 160 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8397.3095238
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8397.3095238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

Our division results in 8397.3095238 with a remaining 4e-08.
