We look at the division of 485932 by 42 
We want to divide 485932 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 42

Step 2:
If we divide 48 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 48, we end up with 6.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 65 / 42

On to step 3:
42 can be fit into 65 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 42 from 65 leaves us with 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 can be fit into 239 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 115.0
Subtracting 210 from 239 leaves us with 29.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 293 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
The number 42 fits into 293 6 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1156.0
Subtracting 252 from 293 leaves us with 41.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 412 / 42

On to step 6:
42 can be fit into 412 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11569.0
Subtract 378 from 412 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11569.8
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11569.8
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11569.809
If we subtract 378 from 400, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 220 by 42, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11569.8095
Subtracting 210 from 220 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
100 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11569.80952
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing 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: 11569.809523
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:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11569.8095238
If we take 336 away from 340, 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11569.8095238
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11569.8095238, and the remainder is 4e-08.
