545011 divided by 42 
Our goal is to divide 545011 by 42.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 42 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 goes into 54 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 54, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 125 / 42

On to step 3:
If we divide 125 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 41.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 84 from 125 to get 41.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 410 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
The number 42 fits into 410 9 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 129.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 378 from 410.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 321 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
321 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1297.0
Subtract 294 from 321 to get 27.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 271 / 42

Step 6:
42 can be fit into 271 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12976.0
If we subtract 252 from 271, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 42, we get 4 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12976.4
If we take 168 away from 190, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12976.45
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up with 10.
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 9:
The number 42 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12976.452
If we take 84 away from 100, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
160 divided by 42 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12976.4523
Deduct 126 from 160 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 340 by 42, we get 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12976.45238
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
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 12:
The number 42 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12976.45238
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 13:
If we divide 400 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12976.4523809
If we take 378 away from 400, we end up 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.

Step 14:
42 can be fit into 220 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12976.45238095
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.

The final result is 12976.45238095 with a remainder of 1e-08.
