We're dividing 793726 by 42 
Our goal is to divide 793726 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 42

On to step 2:
79 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 79, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 373 / 42

Step 3:
If we divide 373 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 37.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 336 from 373 leaves us with 37.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 377 / 42

Step 4:
When dividing 377 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 188.0
Subtract 336 from 377 to get 41.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 412 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 412 9 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1889.0
If we take 378 away from 412, we end up with 34.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 346 / 42

Advancing to step 6:
The number 42 fits into 346 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18898.0
If we subtract 336 from 346, we get 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 7:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18898.2
Subtracting 84 from 100 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
42 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18898.23
Subtracting 126 from 160 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18898.238
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.

Moving on to step 10:
42 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18898.238
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 18898.23809
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 378 from 400.
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 12:
220 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18898.238095
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 13:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18898.2380952
Deduct 84 from 100 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
160 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18898.23809523
Subtracting 126 from 160 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 18898.23809523 and a remainder of 3.4e-08.
