We divide 514906 by 42
Our goal is to divide 514906 by 42.

Moving on to step 1:
42 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 51 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 51, we get 9.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 94 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
42 goes into 94 2 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 84 from 94 leaves us with 10.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 109 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 109 2 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 122.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 84 from 109.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 250 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1225.0
If we subtract 210 from 250, we get 40.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 406 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 406 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12259.0
If we take 378 away from 406, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 280 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12259.6
Deduct 252 from 280 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
42 goes into 280 6 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12259.66
If we take 252 away from 280, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final result is 12259.66 with a remainder of 0.028.
