Let's divide 558759 by 2
We want to divide 558759 by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 2 fits into 5 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 4 from 5 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
2 goes into 15 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 14 away from 15, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 2

On to step 3:
When dividing 18 by 2, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 279.0
If we take 18 away from 18, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 7 / 2

Going ahead to step 4:
2 goes into 7 3 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2793.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 6 from 7.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 15 / 2

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 15 by 2, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27937.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 14 from 15.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 19 / 2

Let's proceed to step 6:
2 can be fit into 19 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279379.0
Deduct 18 from 19 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 2 fits into 10 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 279379.5
Deduct 10 from 10 and we're left 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 8:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 279379.5
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 279379.5
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.

The final result is 279379.5 with a remainder of 0.0.
