We divide 496882 by 89
Our goal is to divide 496882 by 89.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 89

Step 2:
89 goes into 49 0 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 89

On to step 3:
When dividing 496 by 89, we get 5 with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 445 from 496 leaves us with 51.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 518 / 89

Step 4:
The number 89 fits into 518 5 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Subtracting 445 from 518 leaves us with 73.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 73 and repeat the process: 738 / 89

On to step 5:
When dividing 738 by 89, we get 8 with a remainder of 26.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 558.0
Subtract 712 from 738 to get 26.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 262 / 89

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 262 by 89, we get 2 with a remainder of 84.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5582.0
If we subtract 178 from 262, we get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 89 fits into 840 9 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5582.9
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 801 from 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 8:
89 goes into 390 4 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5582.94
Subtracting 356 from 390 leaves us 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:
89 can be fit into 340 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5582.943
If we take 267 away from 340, we end up with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
89 can be fit into 730 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5582.9438
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 712 from 730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
89 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5582.94382
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 178 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
20 divided by 89 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5582.94382
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
200 divided by 89 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5582.9438202
Deduct 178 from 200 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
89 can be fit into 220 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5582.94382022
Subtracting 178 from 220 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5582.94382022 with a remaining 4.2e-08.
