We're dividing 542809 by 1 
We're looking to find how many times 1 goes into 542809.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 1, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 5 from 5 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 1

On to step 2:
1 can be fit into 4 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54.0
If we subtract 4 from 4, we get 0.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 1

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 2 by 1, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 542.0
Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 1

Advancing to step 4:
1 can be fit into 8 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5428.0
If we take 8 away from 8, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 1

Moving on to step 5:
1 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 54280.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 1

Let's proceed to step 6:
9 divided by 1 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 542809.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 9 from 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 0 by 1, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 542809.0
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.

On to step 8:
1 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 542809.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

The quotient of the division is 542809.0, and the remainder is 0.0.
