Let's divide 776681 by 42
We want to figure out the number of times 776681 can be divided by 42.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 77 / 42

Step 2:
42 goes into 77 1 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 42 from 77.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 356 / 42

Step 3:
The number 42 fits into 356 8 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 336 from 356 to get 20.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 206 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 can be fit into 206 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 184.0
Subtract 168 from 206 to get 38.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 388 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 388 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 10.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1849.0
If we subtract 378 from 388, we get 10.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 101 / 42

Step 6:
42 can be fit into 101 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18492.0
If we take 84 away from 101, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 170 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18492.4
If we take 168 away from 170, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18492.4
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 42 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18492.404
If we subtract 168 from 200, we 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.

Step 10:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 18492.4047
Subtracting 294 from 320 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 260 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18492.40476
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.

Advancing to step 12:
42 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18492.404761
Deduct 42 from 80 and we're left with 38.
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 13:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18492.4047619
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
42 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18492.4047619
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18492.4047619 with a remaining 2e-08.
