We divide 988882 by 59
We want to figure out the number of times 988882 can be divided by 59.

Going ahead to step 1:
59 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 59

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 59 from 98 to get 39.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 39, then repeat: 398 / 59

Moving on to step 3:
The number 59 fits into 398 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 354 from 398 and we're left with 44.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 448 / 59

Step 4:
448 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 167.0
If we subtract 413 from 448, we get 35.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 358 / 59

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 59 fits into 358 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1676.0
Subtract 354 from 358 to get 4.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 42 / 59

Step 6:
The number 59 fits into 42 0 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16760.0
Subtract 0 from 42 to get 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 7:
59 goes into 420 7 times with a remainder of 7.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16760.7
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 8:
The number 59 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 16760.71
Subtract 59 from 70 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
59 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16760.711
Deduct 59 from 110 and we're left 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 result is 16760.711 with a remainder of 0.0051.
