We look at the division of 279612 by 58 
We want to divide 279612 by 58.

Moving on to step 1:
58 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 58

Going ahead to step 2:
27 divided by 58 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 27 and we're left with 27.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 58

Going ahead to step 3:
58 goes into 279 4 times with a remainder of 47.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 232 from 279 and we're left with 47.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 476 / 58

Moving on to step 4:
58 can be fit into 476 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we subtract 464 from 476, we get 12.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 121 / 58

Step 5:
When dividing 121 by 58, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 482.0
If we take 116 away from 121, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 58

Moving on to step 6:
The number 58 fits into 52 0 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4820.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 520 by 58, we get 8 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4820.8
If we take 464 away from 520, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 560 by 58, we get 9 with a remainder of 38.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4820.89
If we take 522 away from 560, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 380 by 58, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4820.896
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 348 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 320 by 58, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4820.8965
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.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 300 by 58, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4820.89655
Subtract 290 from 300 to get 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 4820.89655, with a leftover of 1e-05.
