Let's divide 34878477 by 589
We want to divide 34878477 by 589.

Let's proceed to step 1:
589 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 589

Moving on to step 2:
34 divided by 589 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 34, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 348 / 589

On to step 3:
If we divide 348 by 589, we get 0 and a remainder of 348.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 348 to get 348.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 348 and continue with: 3487 / 589

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 3487 by 589, we get 5 with a remainder of 542.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 2945 from 3487 and we're left with 542.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 542 and continue: 5428 / 589

Let's proceed to step 5:
589 goes into 5428 9 times with a remainder of 127.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtract 5301 from 5428 to get 127.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 127 and continue: 1274 / 589

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 589 fits into 1274 2 times, leaving a remainder of 96.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 592.0
If we take 1178 away from 1274, we end up with 96.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 96, then repeat: 967 / 589

On to step 7:
The number 589 fits into 967 1 times, leaving a remainder of 378.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5921.0
If we take 589 away from 967, we end up with 378.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 378, then repeat: 3787 / 589

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 3787 by 589, we get 6 with a remainder of 253.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59216.0
The remainder is 253 after subtracting 3534 from 3787.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 2530 by 589, we get 4 with a remainder of 174.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59216.4
Subtract 2356 from 2530 to get 174.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1740, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 1740 by 589, we get 2 with a remainder of 562.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 59216.42
Deduct 1178 from 1740 and we're left with 562.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
5620 divided by 589 is 9 with a remainder of 319.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59216.429
If we subtract 5301 from 5620, we get 319.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3190, and continue the process.

Step 12:
589 goes into 3190 5 times with a remainder of 245.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59216.4295
If we subtract 2945 from 3190, we get 245.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
2450 divided by 589 is 4 with a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59216.42954
Deduct 2356 from 2450 and we're left with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
589 can be fit into 940 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 351.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59216.429541
The remainder is 351 after subtracting 589 from 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 589 fits into 3510 5 times, leaving a remainder of 565.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59216.4295415
If we subtract 2945 from 3510, we get 565.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 589 fits into 5650 9 times, leaving a remainder of 349.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59216.42954159
Subtract 5301 from 5650 to get 349.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3490, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 59216.42954159, and the remainder is 3.49e-07.
