Let's divide 20491 by 35
We want to divide 20491 by 35.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 35 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 35

Advancing to step 2:
The number 35 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 35

Moving on to step 3:
35 can be fit into 204 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 175 from 204 to get 29.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 299 / 35

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 299 by 35, we get 8 with a remainder of 19.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 280 from 299 leaves us with 19.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 191 / 35

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 191 by 35, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 585.0
Subtracting 175 from 191 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.

Step 6:
35 can be fit into 160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 585.4
If we subtract 140 from 160, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 35 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 585.45
Deduct 175 from 200 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 250 by 35, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 585.457
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 245 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 35 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 585.4571
If we subtract 35 from 50, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 35 fits into 150 4 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 585.45714
Subtract 140 from 150 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
35 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 585.457142
Subtracting 70 from 100 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
300 divided by 35 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 585.4571428
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 35 fits into 200 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 585.45714285
Subtracting 175 from 200 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 585.45714285 with a balance of 2.5e-08.
