Let's divide 596669 by 16
Let's see how many times 16 fits into 596669.

Going ahead to step 1:
16 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 59 / 16

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 59 by 16, we get 3 and a remainder of 11.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 48 from 59.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 116 / 16

Step 3:
16 can be fit into 116 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we subtract 112 from 116, we get 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 16

On to step 4:
When dividing 46 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 372.0
If we subtract 32 from 46, we get 14.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 146 / 16

Step 5:
146 divided by 16 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3729.0
If we subtract 144 from 146, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 16

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 29 by 16, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37291.0
If we subtract 16 from 29, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 16 fits into 130 8 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37291.8
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 128 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 20 by 16, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37291.81
Subtract 16 from 20 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 16, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37291.812
If we take 32 away from 40, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 80 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 37291.8125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 80 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 37291.8125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
16 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37291.8125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 37291.8125 with a remaining 0.0.
