280178 divided by 59 
We want to divide 280178 by 59.

Step 1:
59 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 59

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 28 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 280 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
59 goes into 280 4 times with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 236 away from 280, we end up with 44.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 441 / 59

Step 4:
59 goes into 441 7 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtracting 413 from 441 leaves us with 28.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 287 / 59

Let's proceed to step 5:
287 divided by 59 is 4 with a remainder of 51.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 474.0
Deduct 236 from 287 and we're left with 51.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 518 / 59

Step 6:
If we divide 518 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4748.0
If we subtract 472 from 518, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
59 can be fit into 460 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4748.7
Deduct 413 from 460 and we're left with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
470 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 57.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4748.77
Subtracting 413 from 470 leaves us with 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4748.77 with a remaining 0.057.
