878485 divided by 59 
Let's see how many times 59 fits into 878485.

Step 1:
The number 59 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 59

On to step 2:
59 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 87 and we're left with 28.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 288 / 59

On to step 3:
The number 59 fits into 288 4 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 236 from 288 leaves us with 52.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 52 and repeat the process: 524 / 59

On to step 4:
When dividing 524 by 59, we get 8 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 148.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 472 from 524.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 528 / 59

Advancing to step 5:
The number 59 fits into 528 8 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1488.0
If we subtract 472 from 528, we get 56.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 56, then carry on: 565 / 59

Moving on to step 6:
59 can be fit into 565 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14889.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 531 from 565.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 340 by 59, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14889.5
Deduct 295 from 340 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
450 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 37.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14889.57
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 413 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 370 by 59, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14889.576
If we subtract 354 from 370, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 59 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14889.5762
If we subtract 118 from 160, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 420 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14889.57627
Subtract 413 from 420 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 14889.576271
If we subtract 59 from 70, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 59 fits into 110 1 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14889.5762711
If we subtract 59 from 110, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

The final result is 14889.5762711 with a remainder of 5.1e-07.
