We look at the division of 988912 by 59 
Let's see how many times 59 fits into 988912.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 59 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 59

On to step 2:
59 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 59 from 98 to get 39.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 398 / 59

On to step 3:
398 divided by 59 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 354 from 398 and we're left with 44.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 449 / 59

Step 4:
If we divide 449 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 167.0
If we subtract 413 from 449, we get 36.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 361 / 59

Step 5:
The number 59 fits into 361 6 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1676.0
Subtracting 354 from 361 leaves us with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 59

Moving on to step 6:
59 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16761.0
Subtracting 59 from 72 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 59 fits into 130 2 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16761.2
Subtracting 118 from 130 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16761.22
Deduct 118 from 120 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 16761.22, and the remainder is 0.002.
