333661 divided by 42 
Our goal is to divide 333661 by 42.

On to step 1:
42 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 33 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 33 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 33.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 0 from 33.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 333 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
333 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 39.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 294 from 333, we get 39.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 396 / 42

Step 4:
The number 42 fits into 396 9 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 79.0
If we subtract 378 from 396, we get 18.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 186 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
186 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 794.0
Subtract 168 from 186 to get 18.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 181 / 42

Step 6:
When dividing 181 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 13.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7944.0
Subtract 168 from 181 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 130 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7944.3
Subtracting 126 from 130 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7944.3
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7944.309
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7944.3095
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:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7944.30952
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7944.309523
If we subtract 126 from 160, 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 13:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7944.3095238
If we subtract 336 from 340, we 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.

On 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: 7944.3095238
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7944.3095238 with a balance of 4e-08.
