Let's divide 542012 by 81
We want to divide 542012 by 81.

Advancing to step 1:
81 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 81

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 81 fits into 54 0 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 542 / 81

On to step 3:
If we divide 542 by 81, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 486 from 542 leaves us with 56.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 560 / 81

Let's proceed to step 4:
560 divided by 81 is 6 with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 66.0
If we subtract 486 from 560, we get 74.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 74, then repeat: 741 / 81

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 81 fits into 741 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 669.0
If we subtract 729 from 741, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 122 / 81

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 122 by 81, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6691.0
Deduct 81 from 122 and we're left with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 7:
81 goes into 410 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6691.5
Deduct 405 from 410 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
81 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6691.5
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 81 fits into 500 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6691.506
If we subtract 486 from 500, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 140 by 81, we get 1 and a remainder of 59.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6691.5061
If we subtract 81 from 140, we get 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 590 by 81, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6691.50617
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 567 from 590.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
81 can be fit into 230 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6691.506172
Subtracting 162 from 230 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
81 goes into 680 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6691.5061728
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 648 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
81 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 77.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6691.50617283
Subtract 243 from 320 to get 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6691.50617283 with a balance of 7.7e-08.
