We're dividing 57909179 by 988 
We're looking to find how many times 988 goes into 57909179.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 988 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 57 / 988

Step 2:
57 divided by 988 is 0 with a remainder of 57.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 57 to get 57.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 57, then repeat: 579 / 988

Advancing to step 3:
988 can be fit into 579 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 579.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 579 to get 579.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 579, then carry on: 5790 / 988

Step 4:
988 goes into 5790 5 times with a remainder of 850.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 4940 from 5790 to get 850.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 850, then repeat: 8509 / 988

Going ahead to step 5:
8509 divided by 988 is 8 with a remainder of 605.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 7904 away from 8509, we end up with 605.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 605 and continue with: 6051 / 988

Moving on to step 6:
988 can be fit into 6051 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 123.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 586.0
Deduct 5928 from 6051 and we're left with 123.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 123, then carry on: 1237 / 988

Going ahead to step 7:
988 goes into 1237 1 times with a remainder of 249.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5861.0
Subtract 988 from 1237 to get 249.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 249, then carry on: 2499 / 988

Let's proceed to step 8:
2499 divided by 988 is 2 with a remainder of 523.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58612.0
If we subtract 1976 from 2499, we get 523.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
5230 divided by 988 is 5 with a remainder of 290.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58612.5
If we take 4940 away from 5230, we end up with 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2900, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 2900 by 988, we get 2 and a remainder of 924.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 58612.52
Deduct 1976 from 2900 and we're left with 924.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 988 fits into 9240 9 times, leaving a remainder of 348.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58612.529
The remainder is 348 after subtracting 8892 from 9240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 988 fits into 3480 3 times, leaving a remainder of 516.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58612.5293
If we subtract 2964 from 3480, we get 516.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5160, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
5160 divided by 988 is 5 with a remainder of 220.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 58612.52935
Subtract 4940 from 5160 to get 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
988 goes into 2200 2 times with a remainder of 224.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 58612.529352
Subtracting 1976 from 2200 leaves us with 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
When dividing 2240 by 988, we get 2 with a remainder of 264.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58612.5293522
If we take 1976 away from 2240, we end up with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

The final result is 58612.5293522 with a remainder of 2.64e-06.
