282083 ÷ 42 
Our goal is to divide 282083 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 282 / 42

Step 3:
282 divided by 42 is 6 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 252 from 282 leaves us with 30.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 300 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
Subtract 294 from 300 to get 6.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 68 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
68 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 671.0
If we subtract 42 from 68, we get 26.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 263 / 42

On to step 6:
If we divide 263 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6716.0
Subtract 252 from 263 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
110 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6716.2
Subtracting 84 from 110 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6716.26
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
42 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6716.261
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 42 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
42 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6716.2619
If we take 378 away from 380, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6716.2619
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6716.261904
If we subtract 168 from 200, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6716.2619047
Subtract 294 from 320 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6716.26190476
If we take 252 away from 260, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6716.26190476 with a balance of 8e-09.
