469537 divided by 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 469537 can be divided by 42.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
46 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 46, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 42

On to step 3:
42 can be fit into 49 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 42 from 49, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 75 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 can be fit into 75 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 111.0
If we take 42 away from 75, we end up with 33.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 333 / 42

Step 5:
If we divide 333 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1117.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 294 from 333.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 397 / 42

Step 6:
42 goes into 397 9 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11179.0
If we subtract 378 from 397, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
190 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11179.4
Subtract 168 from 190 to get 22.
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 8:
When dividing 220 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11179.45
If we subtract 210 from 220, 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 100 by 42, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11179.452
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.

Advancing to step 10:
42 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11179.4523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11179.45238
Subtracting 336 from 340 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.

Moving on to step 12:
40 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11179.45238
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 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 13:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11179.4523809
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 14:
42 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11179.45238095
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 11179.45238095 with a balance of 1e-08.
