We look at the division of 461862 by 59 
We want to divide 461862 by 59.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 59

Let's proceed to step 2:
59 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 46 leaves us with 46.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 461 / 59

Advancing to step 3:
461 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 48.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 413 from 461 and we're left with 48.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 488 / 59

Step 4:
59 can be fit into 488 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 78.0
If we take 472 away from 488, we end up with 16.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 166 / 59

On to step 5:
The number 59 fits into 166 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 782.0
Deduct 118 from 166 and we're left with 48.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 482 / 59

Going ahead to step 6:
59 goes into 482 8 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7828.0
Subtracting 472 from 482 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 59, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7828.1
If we subtract 59 from 100, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
59 can be fit into 410 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7828.16
Deduct 354 from 410 and we're left 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 9:
59 can be fit into 560 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7828.169
Subtracting 531 from 560 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
290 divided by 59 is 4 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7828.1694
Subtract 236 from 290 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 540 by 59, we get 9 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7828.16949
Subtracting 531 from 540 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
90 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 31.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7828.169491
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 59 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 59 fits into 310 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7828.1694915
Subtracting 295 from 310 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
59 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7828.16949152
Subtract 118 from 150 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7828.16949152 with a balance of 3.2e-08.
