We're dividing 283827 by 59 
Our goal is to divide 283827 by 59.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 59 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 59 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 28, we end up with 28.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 283 / 59

On to step 3:
59 can be fit into 283 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 236 from 283, we get 47.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 478 / 59

Step 4:
59 goes into 478 8 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 472 away from 478, we end up with 6.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 62 / 59

Advancing to step 5:
59 goes into 62 1 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 481.0
If we subtract 59 from 62, we get 3.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 59

On to step 6:
When dividing 37 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4810.0
If we take 0 away from 37, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 59 fits into 370 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4810.6
If we take 354 away from 370, 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.

On to step 8:
59 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4810.62
If we subtract 118 from 160, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4810.627
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.

Step 10:
70 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4810.6271
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 59 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
59 can be fit into 110 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4810.62711
Subtracting 59 from 110 leaves us with 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 4810.62711 with a remainder of 5.1e-05.
