We look at the division of 997115 by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 997115 can be divided by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 99 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
99 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 15.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 84 from 99 and we're left with 15.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 157 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 goes into 157 3 times with a remainder of 31.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtracting 126 from 157 leaves us with 31.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 311 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
42 can be fit into 311 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 237.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 294 from 311.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 171 / 42

Let's proceed to step 5:
171 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2374.0
If we subtract 168 from 171, we get 3.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 35 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 35 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 35.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23740.0
Deduct 0 from 35 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
350 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23740.8
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 336 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23740.83
If we take 126 away from 140, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
42 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23740.833
If we take 126 away from 140, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 23740.833 and a remainder of 0.0014.
