If you want to calculate 1/42 of a million (one forty-second of a million), then you want to divide one million (1,000,000) into 42 equal pieces and calculate the sum of 1 of those pieces.
Therefore, 1/42 of a million is the quotient of one million divided by 42, multiplied by 1. Here is the math and the answer:
(1,000,000 ÷ 42) × 1 ≈ 23,810
1/42 of a million ≈ 23,810
