We're dividing 254087 by 59 
We want to divide 254087 by 59.

Going ahead to step 1:
59 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 59

On to step 2:
59 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 254 / 59

Step 3:
59 can be fit into 254 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 236 from 254 leaves us with 18.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 180 / 59

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 180 by 59, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
Subtracting 177 from 180 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
59 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 430.0
Subtracting 0 from 38 leaves us with 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 59

Step 6:
The number 59 fits into 387 6 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4306.0
Subtract 354 from 387 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
59 goes into 330 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4306.5
If we take 295 away from 330, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 350 by 59, we get 5 and a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4306.55
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 295 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4306.55 with a remaining 0.055.
