We're dividing 42502 by 71 
We're looking to find how many times 71 goes into 42502.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 71 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 42 / 71

Moving on to step 2:
42 divided by 71 is 0 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 42 and we're left with 42.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 425 / 71

Let's proceed to step 3:
71 can be fit into 425 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 355 from 425 and we're left with 70.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 70, then carry on: 700 / 71

Moving on to step 4:
71 can be fit into 700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 61.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 639 from 700 leaves us with 61.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 61 and repeat the process: 612 / 71

Moving on to step 5:
612 divided by 71 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 598.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 568 from 612.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
71 can be fit into 440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 598.6
Subtract 426 from 440 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 71, we get 1 and a remainder of 69.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 598.61
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 71 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 71 fits into 690 9 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 598.619
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 639 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 510 by 71, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 598.6197
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 497 from 510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 130 by 71, we get 1 with a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 598.61971
If we take 71 away from 130, we end up with 59.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 590, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 71 fits into 590 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 598.619718
Deduct 568 from 590 and we're left 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 220 by 71, we get 3 and a remainder of 7.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 598.6197183
Subtract 213 from 220 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
71 can be fit into 70 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 598.6197183
Deduct 0 from 70 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 598.6197183 and a remainder of 7e-08.
