We look at the division of 542220 by 71 
Let's see how many times 71 fits into 542220.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 71

On to step 2:
When dividing 54 by 71, we get 0 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 54 leaves us with 54.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 542 / 71

Advancing to step 3:
71 can be fit into 542 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 497 from 542 to get 45.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 452 / 71

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 452 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 26.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 76.0
Subtract 426 from 452 to get 26.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 262 / 71

On to step 5:
71 goes into 262 3 times with a remainder of 49.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 763.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 213 from 262.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 490 / 71

Step 6:
490 divided by 71 is 6 with a remainder of 64.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7636.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 426 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 71 fits into 640 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7636.9
If we subtract 639 from 640, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
10 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7636.9
If we take 0 away from 10, 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 100 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7636.901
Deduct 71 from 100 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
71 goes into 290 4 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7636.9014
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 284 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 60 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 60.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7636.9014
The remainder is 60 after subtracting 0 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 600 by 71, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7636.901408
If we subtract 568 from 600, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 320 by 71, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7636.9014084
Subtracting 284 from 320 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.

On to step 14:
If we divide 360 by 71, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7636.90140845
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 355 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 7636.90140845, and the remainder is 5e-09.
