We're dividing 578898 by 12 
We want to figure out the number of times 578898 can be divided by 12.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 57 / 12

Step 2:
When dividing 57 by 12, we get 4 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 48 away from 57, we end up with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 12

Let's proceed to step 3:
12 can be fit into 98 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 96 from 98.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 12

Moving on to step 4:
12 can be fit into 28 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 482.0
Subtract 24 from 28 to get 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 12

Advancing to step 5:
12 can be fit into 49 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4824.0
If we subtract 48 from 49, we get 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 12

Let's proceed to step 6:
12 goes into 18 1 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 48241.0
If we take 12 away from 18, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
60 divided by 12 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48241.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 60 from 60.
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 8:
0 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48241.5
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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 12, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48241.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 48241.5, and the remainder is 0.0.
