980831 ÷ 59 
Our goal is to divide 980831 by 59.

Step 1:
If we divide 9 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 59, we get 1 with a remainder of 39.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 59 from 98, we get 39.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 390 / 59

On to step 3:
When dividing 390 by 59, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 354 from 390 leaves us with 36.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 368 / 59

Step 4:
If we divide 368 by 59, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 166.0
If we subtract 354 from 368, we get 14.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 143 / 59

Let's proceed to step 5:
143 divided by 59 is 2 with a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1662.0
If we subtract 118 from 143, we get 25.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 251 / 59

Moving on to step 6:
The number 59 fits into 251 4 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16624.0
If we subtract 236 from 251, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
59 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16624.2
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 118 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
59 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 16624.25
If we take 295 away from 320, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 59 fits into 250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16624.254
Subtract 236 from 250 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
140 divided by 59 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16624.2542
Subtracting 118 from 140 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 220 by 59, we get 3 with a remainder of 43.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16624.25423
Subtract 177 from 220 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 430 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16624.254237
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 413 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
59 goes into 170 2 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16624.2542372
Subtracting 118 from 170 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
59 can be fit into 520 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16624.25423728
Subtracting 472 from 520 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 16624.25423728 with a remainder of 4.8e-08.
