We look at the division of 59048973 by 264 
We want to figure out the number of times 59048973 can be divided by 264.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 264 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 264

Advancing to step 2:
The number 264 fits into 59 0 times, leaving a remainder of 59.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 59 to get 59.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 59, then repeat: 590 / 264

On to step 3:
The number 264 fits into 590 2 times, leaving a remainder of 62.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 528 from 590.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 62, then repeat: 624 / 264

Step 4:
The number 264 fits into 624 2 times, leaving a remainder of 96.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 528 from 624.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 96 and continue with: 968 / 264

Advancing to step 5:
264 goes into 968 3 times with a remainder of 176.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 223.0
The remainder is 176 after subtracting 792 from 968.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 176, then repeat: 1769 / 264

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 264 fits into 1769 6 times, leaving a remainder of 185.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2236.0
If we subtract 1584 from 1769, we get 185.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 185 and repeat the process: 1857 / 264

Step 7:
The number 264 fits into 1857 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22367.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 1848 from 1857.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 93 / 264

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 264 fits into 93 0 times, leaving a remainder of 93.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 223670.0
Deduct 0 from 93 and we're left with 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
930 divided by 264 is 3 with a remainder of 138.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 223670.3
Subtracting 792 from 930 leaves us with 138.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 1380 by 264, we get 5 and a remainder of 60.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 223670.35
Subtract 1320 from 1380 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
264 goes into 600 2 times with a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 223670.352
Subtract 528 from 600 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
720 divided by 264 is 2 with a remainder of 192.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 223670.3522
Subtracting 528 from 720 leaves us with 192.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 223670.3522 with a balance of 0.00192.
