584959 divided by 42 
We want to divide 584959 by 42.

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
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 42

Going ahead to step 2:
58 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 58 and we're left with 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 42

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 164 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 38.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 126 from 164 to get 38.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 389 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
42 can be fit into 389 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 139.0
If we take 378 away from 389, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 115 / 42

Step 5:
115 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1392.0
Subtract 84 from 115 to get 31.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 319 / 42

Step 6:
The number 42 fits into 319 7 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 13927.0
If we take 294 away from 319, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
42 goes into 250 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13927.5
If we take 210 away from 250, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
42 goes into 400 9 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13927.59
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
220 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13927.595
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.

Moving on to step 10:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13927.5952
If we subtract 84 from 100, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13927.59523
Subtracting 126 from 160 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13927.595238
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13927.595238
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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 14:
The number 42 fits into 400 9 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13927.59523809
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up 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 final outcome is 13927.59523809, with a leftover of 2.2e-08.
