We divide 71890 by 59
We want to divide 71890 by 59.

Let's proceed to step 1:
59 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 59

On to step 2:
59 goes into 71 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 71 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 59 fits into 128 2 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 118 from 128 to get 10.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 109 / 59

Let's proceed to step 4:
109 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121.0
If we take 59 away from 109, we end up with 50.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 500 / 59

Let's proceed to step 5:
59 can be fit into 500 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1218.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 472 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 280 by 59, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1218.4
Subtracting 236 from 280 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
59 goes into 440 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1218.47
If we take 413 away from 440, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
59 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1218.474
Subtracting 236 from 270 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 340 by 59, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1218.4745
Subtracting 295 from 340 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
59 can be fit into 450 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1218.47457
If we subtract 413 from 450, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 59 fits into 370 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1218.474576
Subtract 354 from 370 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
59 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1218.4745762
If we take 118 away from 160, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 420 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1218.47457627
Subtracting 413 from 420 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 1218.47457627, and the remainder is 7e-09.
