Let's divide 255446 by 59
Our goal is to divide 255446 by 59.

Moving on to step 1:
59 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 255 / 59

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 255 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 236 away from 255, we end up with 19.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 194 / 59

Step 4:
The number 59 fits into 194 3 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we subtract 177 from 194, we get 17.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 174 / 59

Step 5:
59 can be fit into 174 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 432.0
Deduct 118 from 174 and we're left with 56.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 566 / 59

On to step 6:
59 can be fit into 566 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4329.0
Deduct 531 from 566 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 350 by 59, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4329.5
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 295 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 8:
59 goes into 550 9 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4329.59
Subtracting 531 from 550 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 9:
59 can be fit into 190 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4329.593
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 177 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 130 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4329.5932
Deduct 118 from 130 and we're left 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.

Step 11:
59 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4329.59322
Subtracting 118 from 120 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4329.59322, and the remainder is 2e-06.
