We're dividing 531703 by 42 
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 531703.

Advancing to step 1:
42 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 53 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 53 and we're left with 11.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 111 / 42

Step 3:
42 goes into 111 2 times with a remainder of 27.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 84 from 111 leaves us with 27.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 277 / 42

Step 4:
The number 42 fits into 277 6 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 126.0
Subtract 252 from 277 to get 25.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 250 / 42

Step 5:
The number 42 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1265.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 210 from 250.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 403 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 403 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12659.0
If we take 378 away from 403, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12659.5
Subtracting 210 from 250 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
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: 12659.59
Subtract 378 from 400 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.

Step 9:
42 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12659.595
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 210 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
42 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12659.5952
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 11:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12659.59523
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 340 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12659.595238
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.

Step 13:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12659.595238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12659.59523809
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.

The quotient of the division is 12659.59523809, and the remainder is 2.2e-08.
