We look at the division of 990842 by 59 
We want to divide 990842 by 59.

Step 1:
9 divided by 59 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 59

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 99 by 59, we get 1 with a remainder of 40.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 59 from 99.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 400 / 59

Going ahead to step 3:
400 divided by 59 is 6 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 354 away from 400, we end up with 46.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 468 / 59

On to step 4:
The number 59 fits into 468 7 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167.0
If we subtract 413 from 468, we get 55.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 554 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
554 divided by 59 is 9 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1679.0
If we take 531 away from 554, we end up with 23.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 232 / 59

Step 6:
59 goes into 232 3 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16793.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 177 from 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
59 goes into 550 9 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16793.9
Subtract 531 from 550 to get 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 8:
If we divide 190 by 59, we get 3 and a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16793.93
Subtracting 177 from 190 leaves us with 13.
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 9:
If we divide 130 by 59, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16793.932
If we subtract 118 from 130, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
59 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16793.9322
Subtract 118 from 120 to 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.

The final outcome is 16793.9322, with a leftover of 2e-05.
