We're dividing 956503 by 42 
We want to divide 956503 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 95 / 42

On to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 95 2 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 84 away from 95, we end up with 11.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 116 / 42

Moving on to step 3:
42 goes into 116 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 84 from 116.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 325 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
42 can be fit into 325 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 227.0
If we subtract 294 from 325, we get 31.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 310 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
42 can be fit into 310 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2277.0
If we subtract 294 from 310, we get 16.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 163 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
42 can be fit into 163 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22773.0
If we take 126 away from 163, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
42 can be fit into 370 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22773.8
If we subtract 336 from 370, we 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22773.88
Deduct 336 from 340 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 22773.88 with a balance of 0.004.
