Let's divide 588494 by 22
We want to divide 588494 by 22.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 22 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 22

Moving on to step 2:
The number 22 fits into 58 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 44 from 58, we get 14.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 22

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 148 by 22, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we take 132 away from 148, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 22

Advancing to step 4:
164 divided by 22 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 267.0
If we subtract 154 from 164, we get 10.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 109 / 22

Going ahead to step 5:
109 divided by 22 is 4 with a remainder of 21.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2674.0
If we take 88 away from 109, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 214 / 22

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 214 by 22, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26749.0
Subtracting 198 from 214 leaves us with 16.
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 7:
22 goes into 160 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26749.7
If we subtract 154 from 160, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
22 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26749.72
Subtract 44 from 60 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 9:
22 goes into 160 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26749.727
Deduct 154 from 160 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
22 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26749.7272
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 44 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 22 fits into 160 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26749.72727
Subtract 154 from 160 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 60 by 22, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26749.727272
Deduct 44 from 60 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 22, we get 7 and a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26749.7272727
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 154 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 60 by 22, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26749.72727272
Subtracting 44 from 60 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 26749.72727272 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
