We divide 872762 by 59
Our goal is to divide 872762 by 59.

On to step 1:
8 divided by 59 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 59

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 59 from 87 to get 28.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 282 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
282 divided by 59 is 4 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 236 away from 282, we end up with 46.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 467 / 59

Moving on to step 4:
59 goes into 467 7 times with a remainder of 54.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 147.0
Subtracting 413 from 467 leaves us with 54.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 546 / 59

Step 5:
59 can be fit into 546 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1479.0
Subtracting 531 from 546 leaves us with 15.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 152 / 59

On to step 6:
The number 59 fits into 152 2 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14792.0
Subtracting 118 from 152 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 7:
59 can be fit into 340 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14792.5
Subtract 295 from 340 to get 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:
If we divide 450 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14792.57
Subtract 413 from 450 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 370 by 59, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 14792.576
Subtracting 354 from 370 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
59 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14792.5762
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.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 59 fits into 420 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14792.57627
If we take 413 away from 420, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14792.576271
Deduct 59 from 70 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 110 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14792.5762711
Subtract 59 from 110 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 14792.5762711 with a balance of 5.1e-07.
