We divide 420471 by 54
We're looking to find how many times 54 goes into 420471.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 54

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 42.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 420 / 54

Advancing to step 3:
420 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 378 from 420, we get 42.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 424 / 54

Let's proceed to step 4:
54 goes into 424 7 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77.0
Deduct 378 from 424 and we're left with 46.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 467 / 54

Advancing to step 5:
54 goes into 467 8 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 778.0
Subtracting 432 from 467 leaves us with 35.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 351 / 54

Moving on to step 6:
351 divided by 54 is 6 with a remainder of 27.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7786.0
Subtracting 324 from 351 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
270 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7786.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 270 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
54 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7786.5
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7786.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7786.5 and a remainder of 0.0.
