Let's divide 42420716 by 764
We want to figure out the number of times 42420716 can be divided by 764.

On to step 1:
The number 764 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 764

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 764 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 42 leaves us with 42.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 424 / 764

On to step 3:
424 divided by 764 is 0 with a remainder of 424.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 424 and we're left with 424.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 424 and continue with: 4242 / 764

Let's proceed to step 4:
764 goes into 4242 5 times with a remainder of 422.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 422 after subtracting 3820 from 4242.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 422, then repeat: 4220 / 764

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 764 fits into 4220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 400.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtract 3820 from 4220 to get 400.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 400 and continue: 4007 / 764

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 4007 by 764, we get 5 with a remainder of 187.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 555.0
Deduct 3820 from 4007 and we're left with 187.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 187, then repeat: 1871 / 764

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 1871 by 764, we get 2 and a remainder of 343.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5552.0
Subtract 1528 from 1871 to get 343.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 343 and continue with: 3436 / 764

On to step 8:
3436 divided by 764 is 4 with a remainder of 380.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55524.0
Deduct 3056 from 3436 and we're left with 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3800, and continue the process.

Step 9:
764 can be fit into 3800 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 744.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55524.4
If we subtract 3056 from 3800, we get 744.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
764 goes into 7440 9 times with a remainder of 564.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55524.49
If we take 6876 away from 7440, we end up with 564.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5640, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
5640 divided by 764 is 7 with a remainder of 292.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 55524.497
The remainder is 292 after subtracting 5348 from 5640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2920, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 2920 by 764, we get 3 with a remainder of 628.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55524.4973
The remainder is 628 after subtracting 2292 from 2920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
6280 divided by 764 is 8 with a remainder of 168.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55524.49738
If we subtract 6112 from 6280, we get 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1680 by 764, we get 2 with a remainder of 152.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55524.497382
If we subtract 1528 from 1680, we get 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
764 goes into 1520 1 times with a remainder of 756.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55524.4973821
Subtract 764 from 1520 to get 756.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 7560 by 764, we get 9 with a remainder of 684.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55524.49738219
Deduct 6876 from 7560 and we're left with 684.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6840, and continue the process.

Our division results in 55524.49738219 with a remaining 6.84e-07.
