We divide 588651 by 86
We want to divide 588651 by 86.

Advancing to step 1:
86 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 86

Let's proceed to step 2:
58 divided by 86 is 0 with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 58 leaves us with 58.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 58 and continue: 588 / 86

On to step 3:
588 divided by 86 is 6 with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 516 from 588 leaves us with 72.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 72, then repeat: 726 / 86

Step 4:
The number 86 fits into 726 8 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 68.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 688 from 726.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 385 / 86

Step 5:
When dividing 385 by 86, we get 4 with a remainder of 41.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 684.0
Subtracting 344 from 385 leaves us with 41.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 411 / 86

On to step 6:
If we divide 411 by 86, we get 4 and a remainder of 67.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6844.0
Subtract 344 from 411 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
670 divided by 86 is 7 with a remainder of 68.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6844.7
Deduct 602 from 670 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 680 by 86, we get 7 and a remainder of 78.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6844.77
Subtracting 602 from 680 leaves us with 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6844.77 with a remaining 0.078.
