Let's divide 116489 by 59
We want to figure out the number of times 116489 can be divided by 59.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 11 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 11 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 11, we end up with 11.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 116 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 116 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 57.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 116 and we're left with 57.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 574 / 59

Advancing to step 4:
59 goes into 574 9 times with a remainder of 43.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 531 from 574 to get 43.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 438 / 59

Step 5:
438 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 25.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 197.0
If we take 413 away from 438, we end up with 25.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 259 / 59

On to step 6:
If we divide 259 by 59, we get 4 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1974.0
Deduct 236 from 259 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
59 can be fit into 230 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1974.3
Subtract 177 from 230 to get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 530 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 58.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1974.38
Subtracting 472 from 530 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
59 goes into 580 9 times with a remainder of 49.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1974.389
Subtracting 531 from 580 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 59 fits into 490 8 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1974.3898
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 472 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
180 divided by 59 is 3 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1974.38983
If we take 177 away from 180, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 12:
59 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1974.38983
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 59 fits into 300 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1974.3898305
Deduct 295 from 300 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
59 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1974.3898305
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1974.3898305, and the remainder is 5e-08.
