592871 ÷ 10 
We want to divide 592871 by 10.

On to step 1:
The number 10 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 10

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 59 by 10, we get 5 and a remainder of 9.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 50 from 59, we get 9.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 92 / 10

Step 3:
When dividing 92 by 10, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 90 from 92.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 10

On to step 4:
If we divide 28 by 10, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 592.0
Subtract 20 from 28 to get 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 10

On to step 5:
If we divide 87 by 10, we get 8 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5928.0
Subtracting 80 from 87 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 10

Advancing to step 6:
71 divided by 10 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59287.0
If we take 70 away from 71, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 10, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59287.1
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.

Advancing to step 8:
10 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59287.1
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

Step 9:
The number 10 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59287.1
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 59287.1 with a remaining 0.0.
