We're dividing 164423 by 59 
Our goal is to divide 164423 by 59.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 59 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 59

Step 2:
59 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 59

Going ahead to step 3:
164 divided by 59 is 2 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 118 from 164, we get 46.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 464 / 59

Step 4:
If we divide 464 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 51.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtract 413 from 464 to get 51.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 512 / 59

Advancing to step 5:
The number 59 fits into 512 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 278.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 472 from 512.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 403 / 59

Going ahead to step 6:
403 divided by 59 is 6 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2786.0
Deduct 354 from 403 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 490 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2786.8
If we take 472 away from 490, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 180 by 59, we get 3 and a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2786.83
Subtracting 177 from 180 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 30 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2786.83
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 300 by 59, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2786.8305
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 295 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 50 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2786.8305
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2786.830508
If we take 472 away from 500, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
59 can be fit into 280 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2786.8305084
If we take 236 away from 280, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
440 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2786.83050847
Subtracting 413 from 440 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The final result is 2786.83050847 with a remainder of 2.7e-08.
