We divide 228482 by 59
We want to divide 228482 by 59.

Going ahead to step 1:
59 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 59

On to step 2:
If we divide 22 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 22, we end up with 22.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 228 / 59

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 228 by 59, we get 3 and a remainder of 51.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 177 from 228 leaves us with 51.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 514 / 59

Step 4:
59 can be fit into 514 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we take 472 away from 514, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 428 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 428 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 387.0
Deduct 413 from 428 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 152 / 59

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 152 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3872.0
If we subtract 118 from 152, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
59 goes into 340 5 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3872.5
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 59 fits into 450 7 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3872.57
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 59 fits into 370 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3872.576
Subtract 354 from 370 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 10:
When dividing 160 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3872.5762
Deduct 118 from 160 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
59 goes into 420 7 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3872.57627
Subtracting 413 from 420 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 70 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3872.576271
Deduct 59 from 70 and we're left 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.

Step 13:
59 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3872.5762711
Subtracting 59 from 110 leaves us 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.

The final outcome is 3872.5762711, with a leftover of 5.1e-07.
