We look at the division of 587875 by 12 
We're looking to find how many times 12 goes into 587875.

On to step 1:
12 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 12

Let's proceed to step 2:
58 divided by 12 is 4 with a remainder of 10.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 48 from 58 to get 10.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 107 / 12

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 107 by 12, we get 8 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 96 away from 107, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 12

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 118 by 12, we get 9 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 489.0
Subtract 108 from 118 to get 10.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 12

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 107 by 12, we get 8 with a remainder of 11.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4898.0
If we take 96 away from 107, we end up with 11.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 115 / 12

Going ahead to step 6:
115 divided by 12 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 48989.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 108 from 115.
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 7:
If we divide 70 by 12, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 48989.5
If we take 60 away from 70, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
100 divided by 12 is 8 with a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48989.58
Deduct 96 from 100 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
40 divided by 12 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48989.583
If we take 36 away from 40, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 12 fits into 40 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48989.5833
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 48989.5833, and the remainder is 4e-05.
