We're dividing 599812 by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 599812.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 42

On to step 2:
The number 42 fits into 59 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 59, we get 17.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 179 / 42

Step 3:
179 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 168 from 179 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 118 / 42

On to step 4:
42 goes into 118 2 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 142.0
Deduct 84 from 118 and we're left with 34.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 341 / 42

Moving on to step 5:
42 can be fit into 341 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1428.0
Deduct 336 from 341 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
42 can be fit into 52 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14281.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 42 from 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
42 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14281.2
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
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 8:
42 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14281.23
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
340 divided by 42 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 14281.238
If we subtract 336 from 340, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
42 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14281.238
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
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: 14281.23809
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
220 divided by 42 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14281.238095
If we subtract 210 from 220, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14281.2380952
Deduct 84 from 100 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
160 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14281.23809523
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 126 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14281.23809523 with a balance of 3.4e-08.
