We divide 686717 by 59
Our goal is to divide 686717 by 59.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 59 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
68 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 68 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 96 / 59

Advancing to step 3:
96 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 59 from 96.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 377 / 59

Step 4:
When dividing 377 by 59, we get 6 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 116.0
Deduct 354 from 377 and we're left with 23.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 231 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
231 divided by 59 is 3 with a remainder of 54.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1163.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 177 from 231.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 54, then carry on: 547 / 59

Step 6:
If we divide 547 by 59, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11639.0
If we take 531 away from 547, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
59 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11639.2
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 8:
When dividing 420 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11639.27
Deduct 413 from 420 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
59 goes into 70 1 times with a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11639.271
Subtract 59 from 70 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 59 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11639.2711
Subtract 59 from 110 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

The final result is 11639.2711 with a remainder of 0.00051.
