Let's divide 598601 by 4
Our goal is to divide 598601 by 4.

Step 1:
The number 4 fits into 5 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 4 from 5, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 4

Step 2:
4 can be fit into 19 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 16 from 19.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 4

Advancing to step 3:
4 can be fit into 38 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 149.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 36 from 38.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 4

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 4 fits into 26 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1496.0
Deduct 24 from 26 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 20 / 4

Moving on to step 5:
The number 4 fits into 20 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14965.0
Deduct 20 from 20 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 4

Advancing to step 6:
4 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 149650.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
4 goes into 10 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 149650.2
If we subtract 8 from 10, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 4 fits into 20 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 149650.25
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 20 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149650.25
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
4 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 149650.25
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.

After the division, we end up with 149650.25 and a remainder of 0.0.
