Let's divide 71527 by 42
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 71527.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 42

Step 2:
42 can be fit into 71 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 42 from 71.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 295 / 42

Step 3:
The number 42 fits into 295 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 294 from 295, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 42

Advancing to step 4:
42 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 170.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 127 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 127 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1703.0
Deduct 126 from 127 and we're left with 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 6:
If we divide 10 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1703.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1703.02
Deduct 84 from 100 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1703.023
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up 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 9:
If we divide 340 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1703.0238
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 40 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1703.0238
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
400 divided by 42 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1703.023809
Deduct 378 from 400 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:
The number 42 fits into 220 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1703.0238095
Subtracting 210 from 220 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
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: 1703.02380952
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1703.02380952 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
