We look at the division of 58005988 by 977 
Our goal is to divide 58005988 by 977.

On to step 1:
977 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 977

Going ahead to step 2:
977 goes into 58 0 times with a remainder of 58.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 58 leaves us with 58.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 58 and repeat the process: 580 / 977

On to step 3:
When dividing 580 by 977, we get 0 with a remainder of 580.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 580, we get 580.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 580, then repeat: 5800 / 977

On to step 4:
5800 divided by 977 is 5 with a remainder of 915.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 4885 away from 5800, we end up with 915.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 915, then repeat: 9155 / 977

On to step 5:
If we divide 9155 by 977, we get 9 and a remainder of 362.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 8793 from 9155 leaves us with 362.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 362, then carry on: 3629 / 977

Step 6:
3629 divided by 977 is 3 with a remainder of 698.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 593.0
Deduct 2931 from 3629 and we're left with 698.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 698, then repeat: 6988 / 977

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 6988 by 977, we get 7 and a remainder of 149.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5937.0
Subtract 6839 from 6988 to get 149.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 149, then repeat: 1498 / 977

On to step 8:
The number 977 fits into 1498 1 times, leaving a remainder of 521.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59371.0
Subtracting 977 from 1498 leaves us with 521.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
977 goes into 5210 5 times with a remainder of 325.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59371.5
Deduct 4885 from 5210 and we're left with 325.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
977 can be fit into 3250 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 319.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59371.53
The remainder is 319 after subtracting 2931 from 3250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 3190 by 977, we get 3 with a remainder of 259.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59371.533
If we take 2931 away from 3190, we end up with 259.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2590, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 59371.533 with a balance of 0.0259.
