498712 ÷ 59 
Our goal is to divide 498712 by 59.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 49 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 49.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 49 to get 49.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 498 / 59

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 498 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 26.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 472 from 498, we get 26.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 267 / 59

On to step 4:
267 divided by 59 is 4 with a remainder of 31.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 84.0
If we subtract 236 from 267, we get 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 59

On to step 5:
311 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 845.0
Subtracting 295 from 311 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 162 / 59

On to step 6:
When dividing 162 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8452.0
If we take 118 away from 162, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 440 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8452.7
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
59 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8452.74
Subtract 236 from 270 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 9:
340 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8452.745
Subtracting 295 from 340 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 450 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8452.7457
If we take 413 away from 450, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
59 goes into 370 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8452.74576
If we take 354 away from 370, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 160 by 59, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8452.745762
If we take 118 away from 160, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
420 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8452.7457627
If we subtract 413 from 420, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
59 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8452.74576271
Subtract 59 from 70 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8452.74576271 with a remaining 1.1e-08.
