Let's divide 578999 by 16
Our goal is to divide 578999 by 16.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 16 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 57 / 16

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 57 by 16, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 48 from 57 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 16

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 98 by 16, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Deduct 96 from 98 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 16

Moving on to step 4:
The number 16 fits into 29 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 361.0
Deduct 16 from 29 and we're left with 13.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 139 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
16 goes into 139 8 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3618.0
Subtract 128 from 139 to get 11.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 16

On to step 6:
The number 16 fits into 119 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36187.0
If we take 112 away from 119, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 7:
16 can be fit into 70 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36187.4
If we subtract 64 from 70, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 16 fits into 60 3 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36187.43
Subtracting 48 from 60 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 16 fits into 120 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36187.437
If we subtract 112 from 120, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36187.4375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 80 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36187.4375
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36187.4375
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 36187.4375 with a remaining 0.0.
