We look at the division of 587091 by 42 
Let's see how many times 42 fits into 587091.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 can be fit into 58 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 42 from 58.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 167 / 42

Step 3:
If we divide 167 by 42, we get 3 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 126 from 167 to get 41.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 410 / 42

Step 4:
If we divide 410 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 32.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 139.0
If we take 378 away from 410, we end up with 32.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 329 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 329 by 42, we get 7 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1397.0
Subtract 294 from 329 to get 35.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 351 / 42

Step 6:
If we divide 351 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 15.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13978.0
If we subtract 336 from 351, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13978.3
If we subtract 126 from 150, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
42 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13978.35
If we take 210 away from 240, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 9:
300 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13978.357
If we subtract 294 from 300, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
42 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13978.3571
Subtracting 42 from 60 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
180 divided by 42 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13978.35714
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 12:
42 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13978.357142
Subtracting 84 from 120 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 42 fits into 360 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 13978.3571428
If we subtract 336 from 360, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 42 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13978.35714285
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 210 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 13978.35714285 with a balance of 3e-08.
