Let's divide 596715 by 2
We want to figure out the number of times 596715 can be divided by 2.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 2, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 4 from 5 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 2

Going ahead to step 2:
19 divided by 2 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we subtract 18 from 19, we get 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 2

Advancing to step 3:
16 divided by 2 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 298.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 16 from 16.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
The number 2 fits into 7 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2983.0
If we take 6 away from 7, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 2

Step 5:
2 can be fit into 11 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29835.0
Subtracting 10 from 11 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 15 / 2

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 15 by 2, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 298357.0
Subtract 14 from 15 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
2 goes into 10 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 298357.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 10 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
2 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 298357.5
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 298357.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 298357.5 with a balance of 0.0.
