We divide 700498 by 59
Our goal is to divide 700498 by 59.

Let's proceed to step 1:
59 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 70 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 70 by 59, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 70 and we're left with 11.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 110 / 59

On to step 3:
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: 11.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 59 from 110.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 514 / 59

Going ahead to step 4:
59 can be fit into 514 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtract 472 from 514 to get 42.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 429 / 59

Going ahead to step 5:
429 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 16.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1187.0
If we take 413 away from 429, we end up with 16.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 168 / 59

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 59 fits into 168 2 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11872.0
Deduct 118 from 168 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
500 divided by 59 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11872.8
If we take 472 away from 500, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 59, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11872.84
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 236 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 440 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11872.847
Subtract 413 from 440 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 59 fits into 270 4 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11872.8474
Subtracting 236 from 270 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 340 by 59, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11872.84745
Deduct 295 from 340 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
The number 59 fits into 450 7 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11872.847457
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 413 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 370 by 59, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11872.8474576
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 354 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
59 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11872.84745762
Subtract 118 from 160 to 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.

The final result is 11872.84745762 with a remainder of 4.2e-08.
