Let's divide 989455 by 59
We want to figure out the number of times 989455 can be divided by 59.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 59 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
59 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 59 from 98 leaves us with 39.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 399 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
59 can be fit into 399 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 354 from 399 and we're left with 45.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 454 / 59

Moving on to step 4:
454 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167.0
Subtracting 413 from 454 leaves us with 41.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 415 / 59

Advancing to step 5:
59 goes into 415 7 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1677.0
Deduct 413 from 415 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 59

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 25 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 16770.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16770.4
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 236 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
59 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16770.42
Subtract 118 from 140 to get 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 9:
59 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16770.423
If we take 177 away from 220, we end up 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.

On to step 10:
59 goes into 430 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16770.4237
Subtract 413 from 430 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 11:
59 can be fit into 170 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16770.42372
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.

Advancing to step 12:
59 can be fit into 520 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16770.423728
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.

Step 13:
480 divided by 59 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16770.4237288
If we take 472 away from 480, we end up 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 outcome is 16770.4237288, with a leftover of 8e-08.
