231001 divided by 59 
We're looking to find how many times 59 goes into 231001.

Step 1:
2 divided by 59 is 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.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 59

Advancing to step 2:
59 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 231 / 59

Moving on to step 3:
231 divided by 59 is 3 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 177 from 231, we get 54.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 540 / 59

Moving on to step 4:
The number 59 fits into 540 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Deduct 531 from 540 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 90 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
59 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 391.0
Subtracting 59 from 90 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 311 / 59

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 311 by 59, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3915.0
Subtract 295 from 311 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 160 by 59, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3915.2
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 118 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
59 can be fit into 420 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3915.27
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
59 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3915.271
Subtracting 59 from 70 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 110 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3915.2711
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.

Our division results in 3915.2711 with a remaining 0.00051.
