We divide 742201 by 59
Our goal is to divide 742201 by 59.

Going ahead to step 1:
59 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 74 / 59

On to step 2:
The number 59 fits into 74 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 59 away from 74, we end up with 15.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 152 / 59

Moving on to step 3:
59 goes into 152 2 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 118 away from 152, we end up with 34.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 342 / 59

On to step 4:
342 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 47.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 125.0
If we subtract 295 from 342, we get 47.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 470 / 59

On to step 5:
When dividing 470 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1257.0
If we take 413 away from 470, we end up with 57.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 57, then repeat: 571 / 59

On to step 6:
The number 59 fits into 571 9 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12579.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 531 from 571.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 400 by 59, we get 6 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12579.6
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 354 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
59 goes into 460 7 times with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12579.67
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 413 from 460.
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 9:
59 goes into 470 7 times with a remainder of 57.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12579.677
Subtract 413 from 470 to get 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 570, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12579.677, and the remainder is 0.0057.
