542590 divided by 84 
Our goal is to divide 542590 by 84.

Let's proceed to step 1:
84 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 84

Advancing to step 2:
84 goes into 54 0 times with a remainder of 54.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
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 / 84

Advancing to step 3:
84 goes into 542 6 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 504 away from 542, we end up with 38.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 385 / 84

On to step 4:
When dividing 385 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 64.0
Subtract 336 from 385 to get 49.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 499 / 84

Going ahead to step 5:
84 can be fit into 499 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 79.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 645.0
Subtracting 420 from 499 leaves us with 79.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 79 and continue: 790 / 84

On to step 6:
The number 84 fits into 790 9 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 6459.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 756 from 790.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 340 by 84, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6459.4
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us with 4.
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 8:
84 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6459.4
Subtract 0 from 40 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 84, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6459.404
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 336 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 84 fits into 640 7 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6459.4047
If we take 588 away from 640, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 11:
84 goes into 520 6 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6459.40476
Subtract 504 from 520 to 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 160 by 84, we get 1 with a remainder of 76.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6459.404761
If we take 84 away from 160, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 760 by 84, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6459.4047619
Subtract 756 from 760 to 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.

Moving on to step 14:
84 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6459.4047619
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 6459.4047619 with a balance of 4e-08.
