Let's divide 601420 by 509
We want to divide 601420 by 509.

Moving on to step 1:
509 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 509

Advancing to step 2:
60 divided by 509 is 0 with a remainder of 60.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 60 leaves us with 60.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 601 / 509

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 601 by 509, we get 1 and a remainder of 92.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 509 from 601 and we're left with 92.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 92 and continue: 924 / 509

Step 4:
509 can be fit into 924 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 415.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 509 away from 924, we end up with 415.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 415 and continue: 4152 / 509

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 4152 by 509, we get 8 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
If we take 4072 away from 4152, we end up with 80.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 80 and continue with: 800 / 509

On to step 6:
800 divided by 509 is 1 with a remainder of 291.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1181.0
Subtract 509 from 800 to get 291.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2910, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
509 goes into 2910 5 times with a remainder of 365.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1181.5
If we subtract 2545 from 2910, we get 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 3650 by 509, we get 7 and a remainder of 87.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1181.57
The remainder is 87 after subtracting 3563 from 3650.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 870, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
509 can be fit into 870 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 361.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1181.571
Subtract 509 from 870 to get 361.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3610, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
509 can be fit into 3610 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1181.5717
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 3563 from 3610.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
509 can be fit into 470 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 470.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1181.5717
Subtract 0 from 470 to get 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
509 can be fit into 4700 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 119.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1181.571709
Subtracting 4581 from 4700 leaves us with 119.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 509 fits into 1190 2 times, leaving a remainder of 172.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1181.5717092
If we subtract 1018 from 1190, we get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
1720 divided by 509 is 3 with a remainder of 193.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1181.57170923
Deduct 1527 from 1720 and we're left with 193.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1930, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1181.57170923 with a remaining 1.93e-07.
