We want to divide 42087785 by 875.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 875, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 875

Moving on to step 2:
42 divided by 875 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 420 / 875

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 420 by 875, we get 0 and a remainder of 420.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 420 to get 420.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 420 and continue with: 4208 / 875

Moving on to step 4:
The number 875 fits into 4208 4 times, leaving a remainder of 708.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 708 after subtracting 3500 from 4208.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 708, then repeat: 7087 / 875

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 7087 by 875, we get 8 with a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we subtract 7000 from 7087, we get 87.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 87 and repeat the process: 877 / 875

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 877 by 875, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 481.0
Subtract 875 from 877 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 875

On to step 7:
If we divide 28 by 875, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4810.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 285 / 875

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 285 by 875, we get 0 with a remainder of 285.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48100.0
Subtract 0 from 285 to get 285.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2850, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 2850 by 875, we get 3 with a remainder of 225.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48100.3
Subtract 2625 from 2850 to get 225.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 2250 by 875, we get 2 and a remainder of 500.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48100.32
If we take 1750 away from 2250, we end up with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
875 goes into 5000 5 times with a remainder of 625.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48100.325
Deduct 4375 from 5000 and we're left with 625.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 6250 by 875, we get 7 and a remainder of 125.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48100.3257
If we take 6125 away from 6250, we end up with 125.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 1250 by 875, we get 1 and a remainder of 375.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 48100.32571
If we subtract 875 from 1250, we get 375.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
875 can be fit into 3750 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 250.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48100.325714
Deduct 3500 from 3750 and we're left with 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
875 goes into 2500 2 times with a remainder of 750.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48100.3257142
Subtract 1750 from 2500 to get 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 7500 by 875, we get 8 with a remainder of 500.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48100.32571428
Subtracting 7000 from 7500 leaves us with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 48100.32571428, and the remainder is 5e-07.
