We're dividing 243940 by 59 
Our goal is to divide 243940 by 59.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 59

Advancing to step 2:
59 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 243 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
243 divided by 59 is 4 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 236 from 243 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 79 / 59

Let's proceed to step 4:
59 goes into 79 1 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 59 from 79, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 59

On to step 5:
The number 59 fits into 204 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 413.0
If we take 177 away from 204, we end up with 27.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 270 / 59

On to step 6:
59 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4134.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 236 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
59 can be fit into 340 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4134.5
Subtracting 295 from 340 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
59 can be fit into 450 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4134.57
If we subtract 413 from 450, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 370 by 59, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4134.576
Subtract 354 from 370 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 10:
59 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4134.5762
If we subtract 118 from 160, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 59 fits into 420 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4134.57627
If we take 413 away from 420, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4134.576271
Subtract 59 from 70 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 59 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4134.5762711
If we take 59 away from 110, we end up with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4134.5762711, and the remainder is 5.1e-07.
