55997 ÷ 58 
We want to divide 55997 by 58.

On to step 1:
58 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 58

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 55 by 58, we get 0 and a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 55 to get 55.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 55, then carry on: 559 / 58

Advancing to step 3:
The number 58 fits into 559 9 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 522 away from 559, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 379 / 58

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 379 by 58, we get 6 with a remainder of 31.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 96.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 348 from 379.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 317 / 58

Let's proceed to step 5:
58 goes into 317 5 times with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 965.0
Subtract 290 from 317 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 270 by 58, we get 4 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 965.4
Subtract 232 from 270 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
58 can be fit into 380 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 965.46
If we take 348 away from 380, we end up with 32.
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:
320 divided by 58 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 965.465
If we subtract 290 from 320, we get 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 9:
When dividing 300 by 58, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 965.4655
If we take 290 away from 300, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 965.4655, with a leftover of 0.0001.
