424559 ÷ 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 424559 can be divided by 42.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 42 / 42

On to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 42 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 42, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 4 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 42 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 45 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 101.0
Deduct 42 from 45 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 42

On to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 35 0 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1010.0
If we take 0 away from 35, we end up with 35.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 359 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 359 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10108.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 336 from 359.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
230 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10108.5
If we subtract 210 from 230, we get 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 8:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10108.54
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 26.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10108.547
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 294 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
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: 10108.5476
Subtracting 252 from 260 leaves us 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.

On to step 11:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10108.54761
If we subtract 42 from 80, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 12:
42 goes into 380 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10108.547619
If we subtract 378 from 380, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
20 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10108.547619
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
42 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10108.54761904
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.

Our division results in 10108.54761904 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
