Let's divide 588438 by 6
We want to figure out the number of times 588438 can be divided by 6.

Step 1:
6 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 6

Step 2:
If we divide 58 by 6, we get 9 and a remainder of 4.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 54 away from 58, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 6

Step 3:
The number 6 fits into 48 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 98.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 48 from 48.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 6

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 4 by 6, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 980.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 43 / 6

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 43 by 6, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9807.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 42 from 43.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 6

Advancing to step 6:
The number 6 fits into 18 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 98073.0
Subtracting 18 from 18 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
0 divided by 6 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 98073.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
6 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 98073.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 98073.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
