We look at the division of 875246 by 42 
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 875246.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 84 from 87.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 35 / 42

On to step 3:
When dividing 35 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 35 to get 35.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 352 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 can be fit into 352 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 208.0
If we take 336 away from 352, we end up with 16.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 164 / 42

Step 5:
The number 42 fits into 164 3 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2083.0
If we subtract 126 from 164, we get 38.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 386 / 42

Moving on to step 6:
42 can be fit into 386 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20839.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 378 from 386.
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 7:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20839.1
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 380 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 20839.19
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 378 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 20 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20839.19
If we subtract 0 from 20, 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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20839.1904
Subtract 168 from 200 to 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.

On to step 11:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20839.19047
If we subtract 294 from 320, we 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 12:
The number 42 fits into 260 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20839.190476
If we subtract 252 from 260, we get 8.
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 13:
80 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20839.1904761
Subtract 42 from 80 to 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 380 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20839.19047619
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.

The final outcome is 20839.19047619, with a leftover of 2e-09.
