Let's divide 261590 by 59
Let's see how many times 59 fits into 261590.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 59 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 59

Advancing to step 2:
The number 59 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 261 / 59

On to step 3:
59 can be fit into 261 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 236 from 261.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 255 / 59

Advancing to step 4:
59 goes into 255 4 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
Deduct 236 from 255 and we're left with 19.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 199 / 59

On to step 5:
199 divided by 59 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 443.0
Subtract 177 from 199 to get 22.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 220 / 59

Step 6:
The number 59 fits into 220 3 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4433.0
Subtracting 177 from 220 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
59 goes into 430 7 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4433.7
Subtracting 413 from 430 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 59 fits into 170 2 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4433.72
Deduct 118 from 170 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
59 can be fit into 520 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4433.728
If we take 472 away from 520, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
59 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4433.7288
Subtracting 472 from 480 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 4433.7288 with a remainder of 8e-05.
