Let's divide 489118 by 42
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 489118.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 42

Moving on to step 2:
42 can be fit into 48 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 42 away from 48, we end up with 6.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 69 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 can be fit into 69 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 42 from 69, we get 27.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 271 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 271 6 times with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 116.0
Subtracting 252 from 271 leaves us with 19.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 191 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 191 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 23.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1164.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 168 from 191.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 238 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
238 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11645.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 210 from 238.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 42, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11645.6
If we take 252 away from 280, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 42, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11645.66
Subtracting 252 from 280 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11645.66 and a remainder of 0.028.
